the Fountain

this may be my favorite movie ever (besides Evil Dead II, of course). Darren Aronofsky is such an amazing writer and director. This film is visually stunning, as well as very deep and layered philosophically. Hugh Jackman is brilliant, and even Rachel Weisz gives a wonderful performance, and I am usually not a fan of her acting. There is so much going on with the interplay between the three storylines, and the meditations on love, death, religion, and everything else we spend our lives struggling to understand. Not to mention, it completely reinvents the science fiction genre much the same way BSG did, by using it to explore real life issues. for me, it took three viewings to really understand everything that was going on, but it could not have been more worth it.

have i mentioned that i absolutely LOVE this movie? if you can watch it without crying, you must be made of stone.

Anything with Darren Aronofsky I am down with Pi has to be my favorite movie of his. I own the Fountain on blueray it very good.

I sat there after watching this the 1st time and was like “wtf?” for at least 20 minutes. Then i “figired out what happened” and went happly to sleep knowing I just watched an amazing movie…i stil dont know what the frak happened
