The Fountain

Post by Stress »

It has to be THE most amazing movie I have ever seen. I can't seem to find any words to describe how I felt when I was watching it. It was out of this world.

Anyone here watched it? What did you think of it?

it was alright. the music and visual effects were extremely impressive especially considering there was no CGI involved. One of my favorite scenes of any movie is the end of the spacemans story, the beauty, the music, just perfect.

Not really a jackman fan and as always someone else could've done what he did better. Other than that i like the way the three stories are connected physically, symbolically, and eventually spiritually...its really up there on my list of good movies thats for sure

The movie is about many things, really.

It covers the idea of past, present and future in a very interesting, non-stereotypical way.
Another important idea in the movie is: "Death is the road to awe.". It also has things related to curing cancer and preventing aging, as well as invoking some biblical myths (like the Tree of Life).

It is very complex and well worked. One scene was particularily appealing to me, where the queen of spain says: "Together we will live forever". Goosebumps all over the place.

Watch the movie, people, it's great!

Well I watched the start but this movie is definitely not for me. It's really vague and just doesn't make much sense. I like movies, but I thought this was really bad.
I was getting really into it with the Aztec start, you know brutal combat, but then he goes in a snowglobe and his girl starts whining about the first walk in the snow. Make sense much?
Don't tell me I have to sit it all out to 'get it'. I 'get it', and it's not for me.
