One of the best ever (Spoilers included)

Rating: 10/10 (2 June 2007)

I did not know what to expect, the trailer did not look so interesting and I thought maybe Aronofsky made an easy access blockbuster, but boy was I wrong. I guess it's easy to see that it's one of those movies that you either love or hate. If you can't follow the story and see it like the plot summary here describes (3 different stories in different times) then you probably missed it already.
SPOILER WARNING: It's just one story. I have read so many stupid reviews about it being 3 different stories about love or eternal youth or whatever. NO IT'S NOT! The guy lost his wife and is trying to understand death, understand our place in the universe, how everything is connected. The conquistador parts are him reading his wife's book, imagining the characters and settings like everyone does when they read a book. This is not even hidden in any way, it's not like a David Lynch thing where you have no clue where a dream sequence ends and what is real. In this one, you did not need to guess or anything, just watch. The whole story was about the doctor and his wife, her death and how he had to accept it and understand that we all die, but in a way we live on as part of the universe. The parts in the space bubble are just him going through all the emotions of trying to save her and finally accepting her death. He finishes her story, just like she wanted him to. By accepting his mortality.
It's all quite simple, I guess what confuses some people are the 3 different settings.
