This is a very intriguing, profoundly sad and wonderfull movie.
If you are optimistic about life, this one helps taking optimism even beyond.
It is very poetic and I would recommend it!
Cheers,

I found 'The Fountain' to be an extremely moving movie.
When I read local reviews of it on geneva.cinemas.ch I found it interesting to see that on the whole the french reviews were very positive, whereas out of the three english reviews, two were utterly condemning and the third far from glowing.
Do you think this is a cultural difference? Perhaps it is simply those particular reviewers..
For me, I found the story to be both fascinatingly simple and complex - the basic premise is simple, but the way it is woven together is complicated and, I found, very moving.
I guess that people take from it their own personal lesson; for me it was a timely warning not to spend so much time considering the future that I forget to live today.
