This movie was terrible!


My friend and I were both stunned that the ratings were so high. It wasn't half as amazing as we thought it was going to be.

I have no idea what anyone can find artistic or inspiring in this film, at least in an amount worth commending. I kept waiting for something bigger to happen, but it never did. There was hardly a message here. It felt like it was trying to go somewhere but just kept wandering aimlessly around an underdeveloped concept. A few glimpses of something flashy here and there, but nothing spectacular, nothing that wasn't already familiar. I was very disappointed. I felt like there was so much potential that was never reached. Visually it was not captivating either, except for a few minor, fleeting accomplishments.

My advice, don't waste your time. Watch The Fall by Tarsem Singh or The Fountain by Darren Aronofsky instead.

C for effort. Generously. Acknowledging that the writer is a third-grader.

the fountain, really?

Artistic does not imply a message. Artistic does not necessarily require big things to happen. You don't seem familiar with minimalist films.
