Fountain of Youth on Apple TV came out in May of 2025 and is directed by Guy Ritchie. It stars John Krasinski and Natalie Portman. Now, I'm a HUGE fan of The Office. And Jim, the character played by John Krasinski in that show was my favorite. So you have to understand this movie is already a bit more interesting to me. Then you throw in Natalie Portman, who was in a couple Star Wars movies and you have a movie that looks interesting. Then as an a fan of The Office, I just recently watched The Paper, which was done by the same folks as The Office. The Paper stars Domhnall Gleeson, who is also in Fountain of Youth. So just based on those 3 actors it should be a good movie. Right?
Well, what is the movie about? Two estranged siblings (Krasinski and Portman) join forces to seek the legendary Fountain of Youth. Using historical clues, they embark on an epic quest filled with adventure. If successful, the mythical fountain could grant them immortality.
Then you look at the reviews online for it. Wait a minute... Don't do that. You probably won't want to watch it. It didn't get good reviews at all. But to be honest. I enjoyed the movie. It's a movie you don't have to think to much in, can just relax and let it play. And you get some action and a little bit of humor. So should you watch. Yes.
So if you don't have Apple TV. You can get it for just a month for only $12.99. It's way cheaper than going to a movie. And you can watch Ted Lasso on their and many other movies and shows over a month that make it worth it. Do it!
Out of 10 Popcorn Kernels, I give it a 7.
