I felt nothing during this movie, too.

Koyaanisqatsi as made by someone hamfisted, elitist, and who thinks the audience is stupid (and who doesn't know as good a composer). The narration is meant to be scientific and artistic, but only succeeds in making me wish for a mute button.
There are some impressive shots, although most of the film does not take advantage of the screen size. And if you have been to Omnimax (or Imax) and have seen BBC docs, you will not see anything new here, just bigger and louder.
