With the file-sharing wars in full swing, 2007 saw the movie The Man From Earth being pirated all over the Internet, but its creators didn't fight the movement. Instead, they embraced pirates and thanked them for their attention. More than a decade on its sequel, The Man From Earth: Holocene, is again being shared on The Pirate Bay. But this time its creators put it there themselves.

Several of them were guys we've all seen doing at least fair work on the screen before too. I guess it was just bad directing.

It felt like they had enough rehearsals to get through it, but not enough to make it feel natural. It was low budget soap opera style.
The writing did a good job of making it interesting, so it worked overall anyhow.

Yeah, the story was interesting enough in the first one to make up for some off-the-mark dialog.
