'Fountain' Flows Curiously

It seems as though what is supposed to be three stories is really just one short story. Hugh Jackman plays three roles as the same man, with only a slight change in his name as Tom Creo. He starts out as a conquistador, then becomes a veterinarian, and ends as a spaceman in a spaceship, or what some would like to call a bubble with the Tree of Life. He sets out to find a cure for death after his wife, Izzi played by Rachel Weisz, is stricken with a disease. The whole movie seems more like an odd dream, searching for the end of a story started by his wife, while reliving the past. This movie is more like Darren Aronofsky's final fantasy, 'cause he's lost his mind. Don't even wait for it on DVD. Forget about it and catch it on one of the movie channels in about a year from now, if you decide to care then. Ten Factor: 6.3
