Customer Reviews

He calls himself Prot.

This is the essence of the book with the addition of time. The story is not unique, and the subplots are not unique. However, the execution is superb. Just the right people were picked for each character. The pacing was such that you had time to laugh, cry, and be shocked in the best proportions. Prot (Kevin Spacey) turns up out of nowhere, yet many things can be explained. Then again, many things cannot be explained. As the people that deal with him vacillate as to his nature, others accept him and are better off for the experience. This leaves you with the question: "Is he a man, alien... or savior”? I also watched “Man Facing Southeast” (1986) of which some people think it is the original movie. However, in that movie they spoke so fast I had to stop it several times to read the translated subtitles.
