The Man From Earth

It stars Tony Todd who was in a few Star Trek Deep Space Nine and the Next Generation.  He was an older Jake Sisco.   He was in Candyman and Platoon.  William Katt was in The Greatest American Hero and Carrie.  John Billingsley was in 2012, White Oleander and Star Trek Enterprise.  Ellen Crawford who was in ER, she had a recuring role as a nurse.  And David Lee Smith. David was in A Walk to Remember,. Fight Club and ZodiaC
   The plot is a professor is leaving and his fellow professors come over to have a going away party.  The professor, John Oldman (Smith) indicates that he is 140,000 years old.  The rest of the movie delves into religious, medical, and social issues.
   I am starting off with a movie where the grade is a bit more spread out then usual.  I rate it as C- , B-.  Overall I would rate this movie as a pass.  But the structure was close to being good.  Some movies are easy to say are a pass this is one that was hard for me to say is a pass.
