**Contains Spoilers**
This movie does not come full circle. It does not explain concepts. So do not watch it for those reasons. Fortunately, I read a simple review before that stated this: watch the movie with an open mind.
When do philosophers come full circle anyway? I mean when I think about Kant with his 'ding an sich' I do not see logic either, I see a practical assumption being made, but in my opinion it's strictly not logical. Or take Descartes with his rationalism. That's illogical right there.
But in my opinion (just as I expressed it in previous paragraph) that is not the point of Philosophy. philosophy explores, more than any other academic endeavour. In a sense philosophy is the study of definitions and the consequences on the widest topics ever, but it is also interesting to see when it is applied in the wrong way.
The point that was being made is that: (1) do not trust a psychopath, (2) you can just have fun, but then you'll die, (3) logic is not everything (same goes for emotions), (4) how a philosophy teacher would want to do a power play, (5) how people in a thought experiment would behave differently than a real one. And more of those things.
It was beautiful to explore.
My solution in the first iteration: at least close the bunker, do not make the decision outside. Make the decisioninside, then you have a bit more time to think.
I'm not a philosopher by the way, I study psychology :)
