The fountain

Rating: Null/10 (2 December 2008)

A Scifi drama film that is very unique and interesting. This film depicts a complex subject that everyone thinks about and talks about. Eternal life, and whether it is out there for us to have. The film at first was confusing because it went back and forth constantly from past to present and then future. The filmmaker is talking about the meaning of life in this film and eternal life. He sets up the characters trying to find eternal life searching for the tree of life. Plants have a very important role in this film and in real life. This character is looking for eternal life because of his dying wife. The director uses love to drive this film. He is saying love and life go hand and hand. Throughout this whole film the filmmaker tells this story effectively and it did have an impact on me. The filmmaker sets up three different unique worlds put into one. The way the story was setup it is believable that eternal life is out there. This film is a little bit of everything. Scifi, drama, action and touches a little on religion. This film really made me think about life, God and love.
