“Excellent… Hutton’s profound point is that there remains an important difference between being wrong and being not even wrong.”
“A fascinating window into the trouble grandiose research projects and grandiose personalities can generate.”
“In Silico shows the scientific process in all its messy glory, with its revelations, missteps, labor, frustrations, self-promotion, fights for funding, and fractious egos. And it shares a filmmaker’s progress from an awestruck acolyte to a wiser and more objective observer.”
“At a certain point I had to look at myself and try to understand what had happened to me to get wrapped up in all this.”
“The project’s spectacular size and public profile serve as a magnifying lens held to the system at large, allowing us to examine the rot of corporate bureaucracy taking hold of scientific research institutes everywhere.”
