    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The scene where Adam first puts on the weights and flips upside down is actually shot in a room that is suspended in a giant wheel. The room, and everything inside it, moves 360 degrees. The camera moves with the room, so motion is not detectable, other than Adam flipping upside down.
    • Goofs
      When Adam and Eden try to escape from the police for the second time, near the end of the movie, Adam is holding Eden on his shoulders jumping through the big blocks of stone. When a man fires and hits the wire that holds the stone where they're standing, they fall down and Eden grabs the chain with one hand, and Alan with the other one. Then she is forced to let Adam fall down, but doing it, the gravity of her planet should attract her and cause her to fall in the opposite direction of Adam. You can obviously notice that this doesn't happen: Adam falls and Eden is still holding herself to the chain to avoid falling down in the same direction of Adam.
    • Quotes
      • Adam: Gravity, they say you can't fight it. Well, I disagree. What if love was stronger than gravity.
