At first sight The Fountain might seem to be very complex film but I think it's actually a very simple story. What I think Darren Aronofsky wanted to make was a different film that actually can provide us a different cinematic experience.
Although, I think this is the kind of film that requires more than one viewing or even two I might say. I am sure that I missed some interesting points that I'll pay more attention in future viewings.

It's very philosophical and full of symbolisms. Beautiful score and impressive acting by Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz.

I can see why many people love this film but I can also see why many people hate it. It's not an easy film, if you've already watched it you'll understand what I mean.
I would like to give it a higher rate, I enjoyed watching it and I can definitely see the beauty in it, but I think it was too complicated for such a quite simple story.

From the director of Requiem for a Dream and PI comes another powerful and earth shattering movie.

Smart and profoundly moving film that deals with eschatology, metaphysics, and love.

You will want to watch this several times.

Cinematography:
It is one of the movies strongest points.

Score:
Deeply affecting, Transcendent, Melancholy that will last for quite sometime on your playlist.

Cast:
Superb performance by Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz.
I know that Jackman excels in almost every role but Rachel Weisz was equally fantastic.

Best movie I've ever seen!

the only possible response to this movie: wat

Simply breathtaking, mesmorising, stunning .....................................

A pretty mess. Totally beautiful but practically incomprehensible. I watched it hoping it would stop jumping around between the three Hugh Jackman fronted stories, but it didn't. It tried to be deep and meaningful about life after death or reincarnation or something, but it wasn't.

The love affair of Jackman and Rachel Weisz was super syrupy and for being so in love they spent a lot of time living self-centered lives. Pretentious is the best thing to call this.

I am not a film critic, I can not write you some elaborate and well thought review like some other people can.

To me, this is a lovestory that transcends all ages, all milennia all fragments of time. Clive Mansell's soundtrack is key to the strong actiong of both Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman. I absolutely love this movie. It is one of my favorites of all time and I have probably seen it more than 20 times allready. It is a very special and powerful movie.

The non-linear storytelling is unique but kina confusing. I probably need to watch this again to understand it. I didn't think this was anything special.

One of the best movies I've seen in my life!

This movie blew my mind, I'll have to watch it again

Falsehood upon falsehood, that's it

i loved how this film just has the characters in an incessant search for a way to cheat death, through myth, religion and science, only for them to realise eternal peace can only be found once you accept nature cannot be changed and all things must die. it's such a peaceful way to deal with death, and it really makes the world around you stop while you watch. it tells you that in the end we're all just a part of something bigger and are never in control of our own lives, because life will end, no matter how much we try to fight it. that can be scary for some, but to me it just makes living less scary.

stalker but make it hollywood.. this should've been a novel tbh
