The Fountain (2006)

Cast: Hugh Jackman (Tomas/Tommy/Dr. Tom Creo), Rachel Weisz (Queen Isabel/Izzi Creo), Ellen Burstyn (Dr. Lillian Guzetti)
For complete info, see IMDb's The Fountain page.

From what I had heard, I expected The Fountain to be more like What Dreams May Come. Parts of The Fountain were a bit too out there for me, but after the beginning, when the tie-in to real life became clear, I really enjoyed the movie. Most of the Sci-Fi parts of the movie were too bizarre for David, but he still thought the movie was okay.

I think if you like Sci-Fi, you'll really enjoy this movie. If you don't like Sci-Fi that's pretty out there, I still think you'll enjoy the main story and appreciate the tie-in to the Sci-Fi portions of the movie. The Fountain was very well done. The special effects are very well done, the story is wonderful, the cast is amazing... I definitely recommend renging The Fountain if you missed it in theatres.

Grade: B-
