Been meaning to see this for sometime. Heard someone say it was their favourite film recently and wax lyrical about it so though it was time.
I can understand why it is was averagely rated by critics and slated by some humans as tosh, others as amazing. It's several stories intertwined (3 in fact). Visual with effecting music. About love, and the efforts from Hugh Jackman to save his soul mate (Rachel Weisz) from death. It's ethereal and not light hearted, love, illness, death and the tree of life!
I enjoyed it, I am a generous audience. It was interesting and thought provoking in places. I liked the visuals and music. The leads were capable.
Favourite quote: Isabel: For every shadow, no matter how deep, is threatened by morning light.
If you like a slightly trippy, occasional head scratchy, but interesting films. Give it a whirl. If arty, visual, weird concept films, don't float your boat. Pass it by.
