The Fountain
A Movie Preview |

Okay, from what I can gather, “The Fountain” gives us Hugh Jackman
as Tom. It’s the 16th century and he is given some kind of ring to
maybe keep him alive, so that he can find the magic potion/tree sap
so that he and the love of his life can life happily ever after,
forever. He starts as a conquistador at first, back in the old days,
in love with Rachel Weisz (and who wouldn’t be). Then we move to
life today when he’s back in love with Rachel, only this time she
has cancer and he still can’t find that damn sap, and later he’s and
astronaut, in deep space (hey, I thought the magic sap was supposed
to be on Earth), but in any case, he starts to learn what life is
really about, in some manner.
Right now the movie is rated “R” for only “Some violence.” Since
when is that an R movie. For R, I would like at least some Rachel
Weisz nudity.
The premise sort of at first reminded me of “Highlander,” but
then didn’t. We’ll see if I bump this up on my movie-watching list
as the date gets closer.
That’s it for this preview! I’m The Dude on the Right!!! L8R!!! |
