So, I want to start with Malick's films, which one should I watch first?
Start at the beginning of his filmography you fucking dork.
BADLANDS POWER
badlands and days of heaven are sort of similar so you don't have to watch them both straight away but i'd recommend that
after that it doesn't matter, what varies is amount of philosophical babble and grass, though to the wonder hasn't got either iirc

Fucking plebs ruining this board tbqh. Badlands is objectively his worst film
>>63087267
Watch Tree of Life

truth

What's his best then? Is The Thin Red Line good?
watch them in chrinilogical order. I've never seen a director get shittier through time in such consistent way.
TRL is fucking awful and pretentious. Badlands on the other hand is his most beautiful and sincere film. Days of Heaven is ok but is a lesser version in artistic terms of Badlands even when it has some amazing shots.
TL;DR
Watch Badlands and Days of Heaven, and no matter what plebs say, Thin Red Line is a bad movie.

Badlands, Days of Heaven, and TTRL are all great entry points for different reasons

Tree of Life is his masterpiece

You have no idea what that word means.
