If you exhaust all of your other possibilites for a movie, then watch an old movie you know is good. I wished during the movie that I would have went to see Happy Feet. The movie was very confusing and weird.... Full review

I was utterly moved to tears by this film. The Fountain is a breathtaking masterpiece in the vein of 2001: A Space Odyssey as it boldly seeks to answer the great mysteries of life, love, death and re-birth across the metaphysical... Full review

I went to see The Fountain thinking two things either it would be too short and nothing would really be explained, or too much raw emotion, awsome effects, and and ending that would leave me breathless. Well it was strongly both.... Full review

This is a terrible movie!!! I've never written a review about a movie, but this movie provoked me to write one. After I finished the movie, I still didn't understand what the hell the movie was about. Other users or critics... Full review

This is not a film for any one public. Americans, often ignorant of philosophy and mythology (by and large) would stumble awkwardly through much of the film, wondering what the hell is going on. Others still would prefer to call the... Full review

It's a mess of a movie, with no plot, no character development, and no purpose. I kept thinking we're going to find out why any moment now. That moment never came. At the end of the movie, the entire theater was... Full review

If they just stuck with the Ponce de Leon story, it would have been better. You just get the feeling that they tried TOO hard adding to what I was thinking was going to be a great story. It was like... Full review

This film is by far the best 2006 has had to offer. Not only is it superbly acted and directed, it actually provikes emotions and makes you think. While this film might not set box office records or even be a... Full review

I do not go to movies to see only stunning visual beauty. I go also for the writing and the acting and the directing and so many other things that we can get from a film. The Fountain had exquisite visuals... Full review

Darren Aronofsky's Noah movie is on every sensible film fan's wish list, and it seems to inch a little closer to reality every day. Considering the one he did for The Fountain , we'll be in for a very special read. ... Full Review

It's becoming clear that Darren Aronofsky is still haunted by the failure of The Fountain -- and I don't mean that as negatively as it might sound. It wouldn't be a 'director's cut' - more like an alternate story told with the addition of unused footage from the first go-round. ... Full Review
