After Arul tweeted about the soundtrack of this movie K-Pax, Pallavi & I saw this one last night . This is a 9+ stars out of 10 movie in my definition. Simply amazing for a sci-fi lover. Here comes the adjective/tags train -- a fast pace, thought-invoking, entertaining, sci-fi, has-a-message, inspirational, open-ending, funny and fresh one. Kevin Spacey is brilliant in the main role of playing alien(Prot) from planet K-Pax. One way this movie is different than others of its kind, there are always few parallel universe in this movie which hold true all over the movie. That is you could be seeing the movie in an entirely different universe/perspective than person next to you. There is really something very quantum-ish about this movie which entertains you on a different level. I won't try to summarize the movie here because of the same reason.
Here is a quote out of the many in the movie --
Prot: I wanna tell you something Mark, something you do not yet know, that we K-PAXians have been around long enough to have discovered. The universe will expand, then it will collapse back on itself, then will expand again. It will repeat this process forever. What you don't you know is that when the universe expands again, everything will be as it is now. Whatever mistakes you make this time around, you will live through on your next pass. Every mistake you make, you will live through again, & again, forever. So my advice to you is to get it right this time around. Because this time is all you have.
