Movie Reviews

Empire Magazine Australasia - 10/10 by Luke GoodsellThe enormous, and sometimes inspired, visual arc of Aronofsky's reach sadly exceeds his narrative's basic grasp.
ESplatter - 10/10 by Steve BiodrowskiThis film raises an interesting question: How far is a viewer willing to follow a talented filmmaker down a rabbit hole, when it becomes clear that said filmmaker has lost his way?
Cinema Crazed - 10/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.So simple, so elaborate, and yet so utterly brilliant...
Cinemaphile.org - 10/10 by David KeyesIf one is to be left with something in the end, it is the realization that its creator is fully in love with not just the result of his art, but the very happening of it.
Premiere Magazine - 10/10 by Glenn KennyAs it happens, each one of these tales is also a love story, and The Fountain is Aronofsky’s profession of faith concerning love’s place in the idea of eternity. It’s a movie that’s as deeply felt as it is imagined.
DVD Verdict - 10/10 by Bill GibronIf one would simply switch on their inherent intellect, they'd see the truth behind the tricks -- that is, that The Fountain is an astonishing, evocative experience
Montreal Film Journal - 10/10 by Kevin N. LaforestAt once incredibly dense and disconcertedly simple, utterly over the top and sincerely down to earth, profoundly saddening and defiantly hopeful.
Film Freak Central - 10/10 by Walter ChawAs deeply emotional and damnably frustrating as any work of pure individual vision must be.
Denver Rocky Mountain News - 10/10 by Robert DenersteinI know someone who told me the movie's central love story made her weep, but my tears had more to do with disappointment -- I've been a big Aronofsky fan.
Houston Chronicle - 10/10 by Amy BiancolliExquisitely beautiful and almost unbearably sad... The Fountain is cinema as poetry; romance as revelation; science fiction as prayer.
