Darren Aronofsky odyssey-styled adventure about a man trying desperately to save his wife, who’s dying of cancer. I’ll be struggling to give a succinct plot outline for this, seems pretty whack, but I’ll give it a shot… the film follows Tommy (Jackman) through 3 eras: the present, 16th Century Spain & America, and the future. In the present, his wife Izzi (Weiz) is dying and – as a scientist – he attempts to find a cure through experimental surgery on monkeys. Izzi is writing a novel which is presented via the 16th Century storyline. Here conquistador Tomas (Jackman) is dispatched by the Queen of Spain (Weiz) to the Americas, in search of the fountain of youth protected by Mayan Indians. And then there’s the future, in which Tom (Jackman) is flying through space in a bubble searching for the Xibalba nebula – believed by the Mayans to be the gateway to the underworld.
