One of most visually stunning films I have ever seen.
Also…one of the abosulte worst films I have ever seen.
Too much mumbo jumbo for my tastes…

I thought that the visuals were absolutely amazing however the story line was a bit confusing. I mean…I understand that it was going through different era’s however I think that aronofsky was slacking a little bit. I don’t know…I think i need to watch it again…i hear that imoovie.com is a great place to watch movies like this one…check it out sometime

Abundantly, in your review. Hence my “sounds like a recommendation”

Well, I for one have never seen Nolan and Aronofsky in the same room together. So you may still have been right! Considering your own description (conspiracy theorist), you may have uncovered something, who knows!

Errr, that is indeed incorrect from my part: Aronofsky wasn’t involved in Memento, but Nolan as you correctly state it. I corrected it. Thanks.

Actually, Nolan and Aronofsky are one and the same person, you know…
(that’s a lie)

Wow, great review!
I am really looking forward to The Fountain, having loved Pi and Requiem for a Dream. Aronofsky never makes things easy on his viewers, but that is kind of why I appreciate him. I didn’t realise he was also involved in Memento. Thought that was all Christopher Nolan’s baby, but it would explain why the estrangement in that film worked so well.
You definately make Fountain sound like a recomendation (as well as hard work, but in a way that’s part of the recomendation)!
