the worst movie I saw in years....

Rating: 1/10 (20 October 2007)

I was highly anticipating this movie. I read nice things about it and was expecting to have the same amazing experience as while watching eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. Sadly I didn't see The Fountain in the cinema (it was on screen only for two weeks in Berlin- that was a sign I ignored-). Then later in a shop, I saw the DVD, special edition, and got it! And OMG!!! For sure, the cinematography is amazing, the performance great, but I was trying to find a plot during the entire movie. And I never succeed! the only thing I had in mind at the end was: why did I bought the special edition and not rent it? The idea of dealing with immortality was interesting. But for me, this movie was confusing, really slow. Completely overrated.
One advice then: if you want to try the Fountain experience, rent it. And me now, I will try to find a way to get ride of my special DVD edition.
