In drei Zeitaltern folgt ein Mann seinem Ziel: 1535 reist der spanische Conquistador Tomás Verde mit Vater Avila in den tiefsten südamerikanischen Dschungel, um in einem streng bewachten Maya-Heiligtum den Quell ewigen Lebens zu finden. In der Gegenwart forscht Tom Creo trotz Bedenken von Dr. Guzetto verzweifelt nach der Krebsheilung - um seine schwer erkrankte Frau Izzi zu retten, die ein Buch über den Abenteurer Tomás schreibt. Und im Jahre 2500 gleitet der Astronaut Tommy in einer riesigen Glaskugel durch die Weiten des Weltalls und hat einen wertvollen Baum mit an Bord. Während seiner Reise wird er immer wieder von mysteriösen Erinnerungen heimgesucht.

Deep. Deeper. The Fountain. Darren Aronofsky tells a love story spanning thousands of years and kindly asks us to watch it more than once, so we can dive deeper into his mind. Without spoiling much of the plot, I'll go straight to the cinematography, which is simply breathtaking, aesthetically pleasing and poetic, while the original score comes from no other than Clint Mansell, the composer behind "Requiem for a Dream" and that was a great choice. Both Jackman and Weisz are exceptional and I see no reason for reproach. I have discussed this movie with friends and I noticed that with increased artistry or complexity, mainstream acceptance declines rapidly and this also happened with "Tree of Life", by T. Malick. This movie will not be for everyone. As previously said, It urges you to watch it again and again to understand every aspect, but rewards you with astonishing beauty in the process. Ever since watching "Requiem for a Dream", Aronofsky has become one of my favourite directors along with Nolan, Malick and Kubrick. 9/10 - Amazing love story, gorgous cinematography, great original score and wonderful performances by the leads. If you have the time, watch it at least 2 times.
I am not a film critic, I can not write you some elaborate and well thought review like some other people can. To me, this is a lovestory that transcends all ages, all milennia all fragments of time. Clive Mansell's soundtrack is key to the strong actiong of both Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman. I absolutely love this movie. It is one of my favorites of all time and I have probably seen it more than 20 times allready. It is a very special and powerful movie.
From the director of Requiem for a Dream and PI comes another powerful and earth shattering movie. Smart and profoundly moving film that deals with eschatology, metaphysics, and love. You will want to watch this several times. Cinematography: It is one of the movies strongest points. Score: Deeply affecting, Transcendent, Melancholy that will last for quite sometime on your playlist. Cast: Superb performance by Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz. I know that Jackman excels in almost every role but Rachel Weisz was equally fantastic.

A pretty mess. Totally beautiful but practically incomprehensible. I watched it hoping it would stop jumping around between the three Hugh Jackman fronted stories, but it didn't. It tried to be deep and meaningful about life after death or reincarnation or something, but it wasn't. The love affair of Jackman and Rachel Weisz was super syrupy and for being so in love they spent a lot of time living self-centered lives. Pretentious is the best thing to call this.
