Daron Aronofsky's -- The Fountain
    #6350559 - 12/09/06 10:39 AM (17 years, 3 months ago)

Beautifully moving film. I was spiritually and emotionally exhausted after leaving the theaters and it was only 1 1/2 hours! I am going to see it again probably tommorow.

Has anyone else seen it?

please don't download it. see it in on the big screen. you will lose the experience seeing it in shitty ripped/bootlegged quality.

Amazing movie.  :thumbup:

Still processing it and it will definitley require multiple viewings but I thought it was spectacular.  I too teared up at the part you did, Syle. 

*****another spoiler alert******








And the end, where he puts on the ring inside the bubble and it all turns to black and then he and the nebulae explodes... amazing.

Great flick.

Fantastic movie. Probably my favorite of the year. It's such a beautiful film on so many levels and is very well acted. It's one of the rare movies (for me) where you forget you're watching actors, especially with Jackman.

And on a technical level I think it's very cool how they basically just filmed chemical reactions through a microscope for almost all the effects. Which kind of adds to the movie itself too, knowing that's how it was done.

I thought it was good movie, but not 'great'. It was well done and I enjoyed it, but wasn't down-right blown away by it either. I liked the various time-lines, I liked the questions it raised and concepts that it dealt with. Some of the visuals were very acid-rific, especially the end scene. I think I will go see it again -- maybe this time under an influence stronger than weed :smile:

Seems like most people are rather polarized on the movie and either love it or hate it. I seem to be the odd one out landing some-where in the middle (a bit above 'just liking it', but not totally blown away by it either)

went and saw it totally sober.

amazing.

i sat in the theater while the credits rolled and just cried.  I don't know what it's about, but it seriously made me feel.

:thumbup:

Jumped in a river, what did I see?
Black eyed angels swimming with me
Moon full of stars and astral cars, all the figures I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and all my futures
We went to heaven in a little rowboat
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

I was also kind of in a bad/bitter mood when I started watching it. And, my friend wasn't really into it and I could sort of feel his 'I am bored / not enjoying this movie' vibe coming from him.

Maybe I should go see it again alone / when in a good mood.

When I watched it in the theater an elderly woman to my right soiled herself (I'm fairly sure she at least had a diaper on) and a schizophrenic to my left talked to herself for the first half and then just got up and left. In fact, I noticed a few couples leaving during the movie.

The movie was enough to blank all of that out. Great visuals and sound.
