Default Anyone gonna see The Fountain?

The Fountain

Since I liked Requiem, figured I might go check this out.

Anyone seen this yet? Critics give it [censored] and rotten tomatoes isn't far behind...

Rotten Tomatoes Reviews

any advanced reviews here?

I've seen this movie. It is bad... so, so bad. (And Requiem is one of my favorite films of all time). It's the kind of bad that can only be made by a genius, because it's off-the-deep-end horrible. Not run-of-the-mill-horrible such as Cruel Intentions 2 or You, Me, & Dupree. It's more like "WTF did I just see that" horrible.

Sadly, it's also not the "so terrible it's funny" or "so bad it's good" kind of crappy. I had no fun at this movie. It's an ill-conceived mess, and one that I wish had never seen the light of day.

The acting was absolutely horrible. The dialogue was absolutely horrible. Quasi buddhist [censored]

Oddly i agree with PJ for once. This film is trash. The plot is retarded, the characters aren't compelling and i wanted to leave after the first 10 minutes. That feeling never left me and if i wasn't seeing it with my gf i would have walked out.

I have never been more bored during a film.

The 'scared of death' thread probably brought it to someone's mind.

It was the "afraid of death" thread + the coincidence that I saw the movie for the 1st time last night.
