Interesting jumble of social messages in Adoration

The dialogues in this movie create stimulating ideas. The plot contains motivated social message, which are unfolded intriguingly. The hero of this story is Tom, a high schooler. He is very much distressed by the legacy of his dead parents. His teacher Sabine prompts him to play the role of a grown child of a girlfriend, who becomes pregnant and was betrayed by her boyfriend. She needs to start a journey to Israel.
The girl does not know that her boyfriend has kept a bomb in her luggage. The security agents stop her. Sabine narrates this story to her students. Tom, who is greatly moved by this story, imagines himself as the unborn child. He expresses his vacillating feeling on a piece of paper.
Tom is effectively convinced by Sabine to take his musings seriously and act the part in real life and Tom airs them on the Internet on various video chat sessions. The reactions pour in from various quarters including his friends and their parents. In fact he gets so many reactions that it makes you wonder if people don't have any other job than to comment on video chats.

This is a welcome aberration from Egoyan's fascination with uses and abuses of technology. Egoyan has however touched upon numerous concerns and handled them effectively.

The role of Simone is played by Khanjian with a passion as she gives myriad speeches in her role as a talkative professor. Character of Tom is just a pawn in the grandiose setting. As an inquisitive student Bostick has done a good job asking too many questions. The character of the highly misunderstood dad Jenkin is portrayed very well and the roles of Speedman and Blanchard is subtle and effective. Technicalities are handled well too with Paul Sarossy's skilful underlit lensing adding to the excellent ambience and mood of the settings. Editing is also managed in a professional manner by Editor Susan Shipton. - 23806
