Product Description Science fiction and romance collide in The Fountain, the ambitious third feature from director Darren Aronofsky , who labored for four years to complete this epic-sized love story that stretches across centuries and galaxies. Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz play lovers in each of the film's three settings--16th century Europe and America , the present day , and the 26th century --who struggle mightily to stay united, only to lose each other time and again. Aronofsky may not have chosen the easiest presentation for audiences to absorb his theories on the lasting qualities of life and the transformative powers of death--the final sequence, in particular, with a bald Jackman floating through space in a bubble, harks back uncomfortably to "head movies" of the late '60s--but his leads have considerable chemistry , which goes a long way towards securing viewers' hopes for a happy ending. Critical reception for The Fountain has been nothing short of bloodthirsty, with Cannes audiences booing, but there are elements to enjoy here, even if the premise throws one for a loop. Ellen Burstyn delivers a typically solid performance as Jackman's boss in the present day sequence, and special effects are also impressive given the film's low budget . And science-fiction fans whose tastes run towards the metaphysical will appreciate the attempt to present the genre in a serious light. --Paul GaitaProduct DescriptionA man embarks on a thousand year odyssey in a quest for the Tree of Life and to protect the woman he loves.Genre: Feature Film-Action/AdventureRating: PG13Release Date: 4-SEP-2007Media Type: DVD
