Have you ever been to a movie night where someone was just confused the whole time? Or someone needed everything on the screen explained to them instead of just watching things play out, thus ruining the movie experience for everyone else? I have a strong feeling this film will prompt that if you attempt to watch this at a party with your friends. Like a lot of artistic endeavors, this film goes beyond the bounds of reality, which some may find off-putting. The trick with this film is that the story is nonlinear. In other words you have to watch all of it to make sense of the pieces, resulting in many "wait, what?" moments throughout. Considering what this movie is trying to convey, I'm a bit shocked by the relatively short runtime. I think because of the shorter length, the parts do not feel overly drawn out. The film doesn't sit you down and explain itself; it lets you put it together. Whether that is a task you want to undertake is up to you.

The Fountain is beautiful and boring. It features stunning visuals and an amazing soundtrack, but the story is confusing and the performances are a little corny. Honestly, I feel like this movie is too smart for its own good. It knows how artsy it's being, which makes the whole thing feel a little smug. I don't feel like I wasted my time watching it, but I probably won't be watching it again.

Been meaning to see this for sometime. Heard someone say it was their favourite film recently and wax lyrical about it so though it was time. I can understand why it is was averagely rated by critics and slated by some humans as tosh, others as amazing. It's several stories intertwined (3 in fact). Visual with effecting music. About love, and the efforts from Hugh Jackman to save his soul mate (Rachel Weisz) from death. It's ethereal and not light hearted, love, illness, death and the tree of life! I enjoyed it, I am a generous audience. It was interesting and thought provoking in places. I liked the visuals and music. The leads were capable. Favourite quote: Isabel: For every shadow, no matter how deep, is threatened by morning light. If you like a slightly trippy, occasional head scratchy, but interesting films. Give it a whirl. If arty, visual, weird concept films, don't float your boat. Pass it by.

I saw this film.. I must admit it was so boring watching it. The only good scenes out of it were Hugh Jackman and that was about it. I know everyone has their own opinions about this film.. but this to me was so boring.. I even slept most of the film. What was even worse was the making of the film. I thought 'OK! Maybe Darren Aronofsky wanted to tell his side of the story on why he wanted to make that film. I guess we all weren't born yesterday, but this was so dull. In the end, I decided to give it the thumbs down. Not my kind of movie. Sorry!

It is disturbing to me that childish and dysfunctional relationships and understandings of life are passed off as "normal" and even worse "moving". Honestly I don't see why they just didn't cast a 4 year old child instead of the man, after all he acted like one the entire time. It would seem some believe infantile co-dependency on our loved ones is synonymous with love. Never once did he consider the needs and desires of his wife in all his "love" for her. I gave this movie a "2" rating only because of its beautiful cinematography. The main character's wife was also pretty one dimensional. This movie reminded me of "The 6th Day"; the scientist who only worked so that he can find a cure for his dying wife. Ugh! Can any writers in Hollywood come up with something original?

The Fountain is one of those movies that takes one out of the time and space that they exist in today. It is not for the average viewer who just wants some evening entertainment. It reaches into your being and makes you think about life, the continuum of life after death, the universal life, what we are, what we may be, how we are all tied together in this plane of existence. If you've ever had a transcendental experience, you will relate to this movie. I believe only a few of us are truly capable of understanding the overriding theme, and thus wonder if many will not like it. I however found it fascinating, the acting was superb by both Hugh Jackman, and Rachel Weisz, and their supporting cast. Well done special effects makes the transformations of the three stories come alive. It's a story bigger than love, it a story of existence and interconnectivity of all things past and future. It's a representation of the universal truth of our being.

The Director of this film must have had the biggest ego trip while directing this movie. I know we are going to get "its Art" by some fans, but to be fair its and i am trying to find a word sophisticated but Dribble is all i can say. I know you are going to hear, the colour and use of angles for filming, This film is indeed poetry, and a beautiful testament to love and the cycle of life, The score enhanced without being overbearing, which is so often the case in contemporary film, The music was hauntingly beautiful etc etc. Thats all fine but still the story has to be there and unfortunately its not. I have seen better scripted films in the Police Accademy Series. How it cost £35 Million is beyond me, i can only assume that Mr Aronofskys bank balance had a £30 million credit when the film was completed. Its a poor Shambles....
