From strength to strength

Rating: 8/10 (7 December 2006)

After a couple of years of anticipation i finally had the chance to watch The Fountain,and not only was i not disappointed i was blown away! To all those people who have spoken out against it, saying the 3 toms intertwining doesn't work must watch the film again. On the second outing you see where the director was coming from as the film on the first outing has so much to take in! The whole texture to the film is like a sculpture created by an artist,and the music just adds to the poetry. Whether you love or hate this film,you can't deny it will have an effect on you good or bad after leaving the cinema. Darren Aronofski had to put a difficult subject matter onto screen where other directors would of played it safe,for that i tip my cap off to him.
