What an boring pretentious preachy movie.

If you thought The Tree Of Life was bad with their liberal propaganda skip this one.

I enjoyed it. Awesome score. It was a bit of a letdown though, because I was really, really looking forward to it.

no. that belongs to those nerd flicks Star Wars. BTW I didn't like The Fountain that much, I just like the soundtrack.

I liked it but I can totally see why somebody would hate it.

This film was terrible but in no way was it hyped at all.

Not sure how an movie unknown by most, disliked by many can be considered overhyped because of the few who love it.

I agree. I didn't know this movie even existed, but my wife learned of this, and she hired 10 Korean prostitutes to blow me until I agreed to watch the film. "You have to see this!" they yelled. By the 5th one I was convinced.

Was it worth the blow jobs?

the music at the ending was surely climactic.

It's nice to look at, but it's a student film with a budget. It's filled to the brim with cheesy, overacted melodrama and tries to touch on themes that have been done much better in other films. It's a mess that doesn't know what it's trying to say or why.

The only film of Aronofsky's I haven't soured on is The Wrestler.

I really enjoyed it in spite of Weisz and jackman. I don't dislike either, but would have enjoyed seeing different actors in those roles. Give me an aronofsky directed and mansell scored film any day of the week. If nothing else pop a few pills, drink a couple beers, crank the volume and enjoy the visuals.
