Amazing, and different.....

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 2006)

The fountain simply does two things that no other movie in history has done.... 1. Break new ground by talking about life...and how people perceive it. and 2. Mix a sci-fi like future with the present and past...and done quite well.
I know that The Fountain is one of those movies you will either like or hate, but the reason people are going to hate this movie is one reason: Understanding it. This is not one of those straight forward movies that doesn't require a lot of thought. If your looking for that, go watch Bond or something... This is a movie about life and how we as humans go about trying to understand it when it hits the stage of death. Now, I have to say that Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weis were INCREDIBLE! They really feel like lovers, so you respond to what happens to them since they are so....human. All I have to say is this: If you want to watch the best movie of 2006, and your ready to try something different, go watch this movie ASAP!
