the road to awe? **may contain spoilers**

Rating: 6/10 (27 July 2007)

I really wanted to like this movie because the trailer made it seem really interesting--but it wasn't. And the most upsetting thing is that it could have been an incredible film due to the originality of the plot/storyline: 2 lovers find the Tree of Life/Fountain of Youth and live forever. I love different movies, for example Donnie Darko and Memento, and I don't need elements of a film spoon-fed to me. But there was a lot of substance missing from certain elements. And the ending contradicted the plot. Perhaps the director chose this for a reason, but I must have missed it. This was definitely not one of my favorites as I was highly disappointed.
