A child is born. We see underwater swimmers representing this. He is young, in a jungle setting, with two fanciful "instincts" guiding him as swooping bird-like acrobats initially menace, then delight. As an adolescent, he enters a desert, where a man spins a large cube of metal tubing. He leaves his instinct-guides behind, and enters a garden where two statues dance in a pond. As he watches their sensual acrobatics of love, he becomes a man. He is offered wealth (represented by a golden hat) by a devil figure. In a richly decorated room, a scruffy troupe of a dozen acrobats and a little girl reawaken the old man's youthful nature and love.

Journey of Man

• Documentary, Science

Geneticist Spencer Wells follows a DNA trail around the world and back some 50,000 years to tell "the story of your family and how they conquered the earth." Wells, who believes that "everybody on Earth might be related," traces humanity's roots to Namibia, where descendants of San bush people "developed a quantum leap in thinking." Good thing, because droughts caused by the Ice Age made food scarce and travel a priority. Wells follows the trail to a totally unpopulated North America.

Rotten Tomatoes® Score

Continues IMAX's silly trend of stringing together fabulous 3-D effects sequences with flimsy narratives.

The film is one of those rare entertainments that really is for the whole family - or at least everybody with a taste for friendly fantasy.

A Collection Of Essays

The Journey of Man by Spencer Wells (Documentary): Summary & Analysis

The Journey of Man, presented by Dr. Spencer Wells, is a very important documentary film that sends out a message of human solidarity.  As Dr. Wells says in the introduction, it is the retracing of the all routes of human migration out of Africa in the last 50,000 years.  It is a fascinating story constructed on a grand timescale.  The drama and significance of this story lies in the high stakes involved for those early humans who ventured into alien territories. There are several facets and themes to the documentary film.  But the most striking and profound is that of human solidarity amidst diversity.  This essay will expound on this thesis.

In this most compelling story of natural history, the pivotal moment was the great Ice Age that set in 50 thousand years ago.  Up until this point, the entire human population (technically of the species Homo sapiens ) were confined to just the African continent.  This is understandable, for most of the early hominids evolved in this landmass, with the evolution of our species being a natural progression.  With the onset of the Ice Age, the rich and diverse ecology of central and southern Africa began to change.  With the substantial drop in temperatures, the erstwhile green and fertile regions began to dry up.  The early human populations that depended on this ecosystem for survival faced drought like conditions. To illustrate the depth of the problem, the sea-shore caves of South Africa, which were used as shelter by primitive people, became ever more distant from the shore line – nearly 40 kilometers at the peak of the Ice Age.  Such radical changes to the ecology forced people to move toward he north-east of the continent, where the climate was somewhat more temperate.  And this crisis for survival is perhaps the most important event in anthropology.  For, without it, Homo sapiens might not have ever left Africa.  In consequence, the richness, diversity and reach of human species might have been limited.

There are many interesting subplots within the epic narrative of Journey of Man. What each of these subplots tells us is that there is a shared sense of adventure and enterprise inherent in our species.  To begin with, the populating of the Australian continent was a tantalizing story of adventure and chance.  Scientists were first confounded by the 6000 mile of ocean that separated the East African coast from the nearest shore in Australia.  Later it came to light that the radically new geological conditions created by the Ice Age provided an easy passage wherever the sea had receded.  In geological timescales, usually populations within a species only gradually expand their habitat.  But the speed with which our species moved out of Africa was unprecedented in the history of evolution.  This is underscored by the astounding fact that in Australia there was not even a single primate species when humans arrived there.  Likewise the crossing of the arctic inhabiting Chikchu people into the New World is another historical achievement of our species.  The Americans who are newly native to this expansive continent nearly covered its entire breadth and width in less than a millennia of its advent.  Instances such as these highlight how all groups within our species shared the same spirit of adventure and tenacity for survival.  It is these qualities that unites us as humans and makes us the most intelligent and successful species on the planet.

Screen Rant

One-punch man finally explains god’s powers and how they can challenge saitama.

One-Punch Man has featured deadly villains, but the enigmatic God's abilities have remained a secret, at least until now.

• God's powers are channeled by Empty Void, posing a deadly threat to Saitama in One-Punch Man.
• God's powers can ignore the law of physics, including space, energy, and size.
• Blast is the only character confirmed to hold off Void's new powers in the series.

Warning: Spoilers for Redrawn One-Punch Man Chapter #195 (JP) One-Punch Man has introduced villains of scaling might and durability, but there's no one more loaded with enigma and deadly powers like God in the series. The entity has meddled in multiple story arcs, including infamously giving Garou his powers in the Monster Association Arc. God's powers haven't been fully explored in the series, but now Blast has given an explanation that makes fan better understand the capabilities of this mysterious being.

In One-Punch Man 's latest redrawn chapters, Empty Void attacks the Hero Association's Headquarters, inflicting catastrophic damage. Blast explains that this "Dimension Slash" is the result of the powers that Empty Void borrowed from God, as they can ignore distance, energy, and size .

Saitama has always stepped up to the deadliest threats, but Void is simultaneously channeling God's powers and his own broken abilities in One-Punch Man . It's up to Saitama, Blast, and the Hero Association to see if they can weather the might of God himself.

God's Powers in One-Punch Man Ignore the Laws of Physics

God's influence from another dimension knows no bounds.

It's difficult to imagine a threat topping Garou's in the Monster Association Arc, but God's powers are explored more fully in the expansive redrawn pages of One-Punch Man Chapter #194 . As revealed by Blast, Empty Void gained God's powers from the mysterious cube-shaped relic while gaining additional power after harnessing the cosmic fallout from Saitama's fight against Garou. Void uses God's powers to cut through the fabric of reality, no matter the size and density of the target.

One-Punch Man has two chapter numbering systems, one based on those published in the volumes and one based on the online chapters. There are discrepancies between the numbering due to redrawn chapters and merges/splits. Tonari, the magazine publishing One-Punch Man online, has another type of chapter numbering which increases with every update.

Blast reflects on the potential for God's vessels to use these powers, chillingly claiming that these skills scale with the talents of their user, knowing firsthand how dangerous that makes Void. This means that Void can alter and slip between dimensions with God's powers, ignoring the limitations of any form of matter . This could pose a threat to Saitama, who also made a career out of ignoring the laws of physics, and now finds an enemy with the same capacity.

Blast is the Only Character Confirmed to Hold Off God's Powers

Void's former partner is a natural counter to god's dimension slash powers in one-punch man.

In the latest redrawn chapters of One-Punch Man, merely seconds after his instincts kick in, Blast suddenly warps the entire Hero Association to evade Void's attack. He can alter space as Empty Void can, evading even matter-destroying attacks like Dimension Slice. This means Blast is the central defense against God's powers in One-Punch Man , at least for now .

What's perhaps scariest is that Blast mentions that this is only one of God's powers, meaning that the true extent of this villain's abilities is still far from known. However, it's still a much-needed glimpse into the mystery of God and the first reveal of his powers, except for his capacity to tempt and imbue humans with strength.

One-Punch Man 's biggest challenge will certainly be finding a worthy adversary for Saitama to conclude the series with an epic fight. As God will likely be the final villain, this first look at his powers is certainly promising, and more will surely be revealed about this mysterious creature soon, now that the series has kicked into high gear.

Share All sharing options for: Anyone but You on Netflix, Monkey Man, and every new movie to watch at home this weekend

Greetings, Polygon readers! Each week, we round up the most notable new releases to streaming and VOD, highlighting the biggest and best new movies for you to watch at home.

This week, Monkey Man , the new action thriller starring and directed by Dev Patel, makes its debut on VOD. That’s not the only recent release coming to streaming this week, as the sapphic crime thriller Love Lies Bleeding starring Kristen Stewart and Katy O’Brian is also available to purchase and rent this weekend. The romantic comedy Anyone but You and the dark comedy drama Miller’s Girl come to Netflix, while the debut horror thriller Humane , directed by Caitlin Cronenberg, arrives on Shudder.

Here’s everything new that’s available to watch this weekend!

New on Netflix

Anyone but you.

Where to watch: Available to stream on Netflix

Genre: Romantic comedy Run time: 1h 44m Director: Will Gluck Cast: Sydney Sweeney, Glen Powell, Alexandra Shipp

Sydney Sweeney ( Euphoria ) and Glen Powell ( Top Gun: Maverick ) star in this romantic comedy loosely based on William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing as Bea and Ben, two young singles who become cold toward one another after an otherwise great first date. After unexpectedly being reunited at a destination wedding in Australia, the pair agree to pretend to be dating in order to ward off their exes. Shenanigans ensue!

Miller’s Girl

Genre: Black comedy drama Run time: 1h 33m Director: Jade Halley Bartlett Cast: Martin Freeman, Jenna Ortega, Dagmara Domińczyk

Martin Freeman ( The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey ) and Jenna Ortega ( Wednesday ) star in this thriller about a high school writing teacher who is seduced by a rich, bored, and manipulative young student. Things obviously go very, very badly.

From our review :

What Miller’s Girl does best — and what gives Ortega the chance to absolutely own this movie — is capture the particular era of adolescence where girls can easily swing back and forth between adulthood and childhood without warning. Ortega gets the chance here to play an outright predatory vamp and a giggling, shy schoolgirl without the sense that either one is a front or a put-on for Cairo. Her adult personality isn’t fully formed yet, and while she’s trying out faces the way she tries out words like “vituperative” in her writing, they’re still all part of her — and they’re all part of the reason Mr. Miller should know better than to engage with her as anything but a student.

New on Shudder

Where to watch: Available to stream on Shudder

Genre: Horror Run time: 1h 33m Director: Caitlin Cronenberg Cast: Jay Baruchel, Emily Hampshire, Sebastian Chacon

The feature debut from Caitlin Cronenberg is a horror thriller worthy of the family name. Set during a worldwide ecological collapse, Humane follows estranged siblings who learn that their father and mother have chosen to take part in a nationwide euthanasia program as a form of public service. When things go awry, the family will have to choose one of their own to offer up as a substitute participant. Naturally, things get personal.

New to rent

Where to watch: Available to rent on Amazon , Apple , and Vudu

Genre: Action thriller Run time: 2h 1m Director: Dev Patel Cast: Dev Patel, Sharlto Copley, Pitobash

Dev Patel stars in his directorial debut as an unnamed street kid who, years after his village was burned to the ground, earns a living as a monkey-masked fighter in an underground boxing club. He embarks on a campaign of brutal violence to exact revenge on the men responsible.

When Monkey Man finally shifts into gear for its action scenes, there’s a clearer vision at work — though perhaps “clear” isn’t the word for it. Patel, working with fight choreographer Brahim Chab and cinematographer Sharone Meir ( Whiplash ), shoots the fights up close and personal with a frenetic handheld camera that judders and whip-pans with the force of every blow, and deftly stitches these shots together into head-spinning, unbroken runs of movement. Influenced by Korean, Indonesian, and Bollywood action movies , what the style sometimes lacks in clarity it makes up in ferocity and impact. The desperation of Kid’s first bathroom battle with Rana is brilliantly conveyed (Kher is fantastic in an old-school heavy role), and the extended climax is intermittently stunning, although the editing sometimes struggles to maintain focus when things get busy.

Love Lies Bleeding

Genre: Romantic thriller Run time: 1h 44m Director: Rose Glass Cast: Kristen Stewart, Katy O’Brian, Jena Malone

The new thriller from Saint Maud director Rose Glass follows Lou (Kristen Stewart), a reclusive gym manager who falls in love with Jackie (Katy O’Brian), an ambitious bodybuilder who passes through town on her way to a Las Vegas competition. When Jackie runs afoul of Lou’s criminal father (Ed Harris), the two must find a way to escape their precarious situation in hopes of building a better life together.

Arthur the King

Where to watch: Available to rent on Amazon , Apple, and Vudu

Genre: Adventure Run time: 1h 47m Director: Simon Cellan Jones Cast: Mark Wahlberg, Simu Liu, Juliet Rylance

Mark Wahlberg stars in this new adventure thriller as Michael, a professional adventure racer desperate for one last chance at winning. After convincing a sponsor to back him, he and his team of fellow adventurers embark on a grueling 435-mile endurance race through the Dominican Republic. Pushed to his limits, Michael befriends a wounded stray dog he nicknames Arthur, who inspires him to press forward when all hope of winning seems lost.

Housekeeping for Beginners

Genre: Drama Run time: 1h 47m Director: Goran Stolevski Cast: Anamaria Marinca, Alina Serban, Samson Selim

This family drama from Of an Age director Goran Stolevski follows the story of Dita (Anamaria Marinca), a woman who promises her ailing partner Suada (Alina Serban) on her deathbed to raise her children. Having never wanted to be mother before, Dita is nonetheless faced with the challenge of opening her heart and forging a bond with her new family.

Genre: Drama Run time: 1h 35m Director: Lila Avilés Cast: Naíma Sentíes, Montserrat Marañón, Marisol Gasé

This heartfelt family drama centers on Sol (Naíma Sentíes), a 7-year-old girl spending the day at her grandfather’s house while her mother, aunts, and relatives prepare a surprise birthday party for her father. As the day wears on, Sol slowly realizes that the tragic truth under the otherwise joyous occasion, and is forced to reckon with how her life and world are about to change forever.
