Fountain of Youth (2025)

This film, unfortunately, has a bit of an identity crisis. At times it wants to be a Guy Ritchie film, at others, a Disney family flick. If it hadstuck to one, it would have been good. but since it doesn’t, it kinda fails on most levels. Too adult to be a movie to watch with the kids, too tame to be a pg-13 or R rating. John is his usual funny self in many scenes, Natalie is basically collecting a paycheck and barely dips into her known talent. The rest are caricatures, although Eiza was pretty good in her role, and the kid was pretty good at his.
The plot is fairly predictable while being all over the place, with some decent action scenes or preposterous CG sequences to distract you from it.
I don’t feel like my time was totally wasted, and although I wasn’t expecting to see a new franchise launch to rival Indiana Jones or National Treasure or Davinci Code, but I expected a little better than this. And I expected better from Guy Ritchie.

it won’t win awards but, I’d definitely watch it with the kids. Standard moral message and, a happy ending.
