Fountain of Youth

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Despite its glossy production and some impressive set pieces, Fountain of Youth can't overcome a derivative and uninspired story that fails to capture the creativity of the countless action-adventure flicks it cribs from.

Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News James Vanderbilt’s screenplay flashes some cheeky references (including one about a Vanderbilt) but there are no big surprises to be had here. Rated: 2/4 May 30, 2025 Full Review Ben Travis Empire Magazine Given all the elements involved, Fountain Of Youth should be a blast. That it isn’t is a real disappointment. Maybe best left buried. Rated: 2/5 May 29, 2025 Full Review Robert Levin Newsday This is mediocrity personified. Rated: 1/4 May 28, 2025 Full Review Clotilde Chinnici The People's Movies Overall, Fountain of Youth is an entertaining film that does not seem to reach its full potential. Rated: 3/5 Aug 7, 2025 Full Review Ryan Syrek The Reader (Omaha, NE) For a few years now, I’ve wondered if everyone (including the man himself) has overcalculated John Krasinski’s likeability. At least director Guy Ritchie’s latest can confirm that. Rated: D- Jul 18, 2025 Full Review Alise Chaffins MacGuffin or Meaning (Substack) Overall, Fountain of Youth is a relatively entertaining, if a bit bland, piece of filmmaking. Rated: 3/5 Jul 15, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Nathan F Some of these streaming platforms have all the money to get AAA actors, but no skills to write, direct, and edit the movie to flow like it should. Funny punch lines were a flop. Action points were shallow. And story line was just bla. I stopped it after 20min. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/14/25 Full Review Robert K Fountain of Youth was a fun adventure movie with plenty of action and excitement, but it struggled to keep me invested in its characters. For the most part, none of them felt grounded in reality — everyone seemed exaggerated or overly dramatic, making it hard to connect with them on a human level. The film also spent far too much time on backstory. It was as if I’d walked into a sequel without having seen the first movie. Instead of letting the adventure speak for itself, the constant references to the characters’ pasts slowed things down and made the story feel cluttered. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/14/25 Full Review Sunita P If you want an enjoyable Saturday night movie, then this tongue in cheek adventure movie will fit the bill. Its not a blockbuster movie but made for streaming only. If you enjoyed both National Treasure : Book of Secrets you certainly will enjoy this film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/13/25 Full Review Isabelle L good visuals. too much cgi, overdoing on the script, no character development, and over stimulating. a disgrace to indiana jones. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/25 Full Review Audience Member I loved John Krasinsksi’s energy and playfulness in this movie. The fast pace played well. A little less frenetic would also have been enjoyable but I loved the movie and have watched it three times. The themes were intriguing and the acting spot on. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/11/25 Full Review Nick C Some of the worst dialogue I've seen in a professional production, which made me learn the screenwriter is a nepo baby of the Vanderbilt family so this entire movie is a self-insert fictional family history. In addition, Natalie Portman does the absolute worst acting I've seen of her career. If this was the first movie I had seen with her I would think she's completely unable to act. You would think plot would barely matter in a dumb adventure movie like this but it still manages to drag the movie down even more. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/10/25 Full Review Read all reviews
