The Fountain



The Good:

It was a pretty film.

The Bad:
Though I have enjoyed both Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz before - I found them both to be stilted, flat and boring in this film. I think it was mostly the subject matter given to them was a bit to hokey for even them to buy.

Though pretty - it was often nonsensical past the willing suspension of disbelief. It left you confused and not in the "that just wasn't explained clearly" kind of way.

All in all:
Unless you just have the need to see something pretty with no substance, don't bother. And even then - I'm sure there are better ways to use your time.
