Is this the ultimate 2deep4u war film?
it wasn't even that deep
just a great mfilm

It's just a good solid piece of cinema.
malick's masturbatory flicks could hardly ever be considered "films"
Quite shit desu familiano
>>63575870
It was deep, but like a quiet limpid ocean. Everyone can dive in it and navigate it and it remains satisfying for everyone.

This flick was created, written, and directed by effeminate men who know next to nothing about combat and is worshiped by plebs who have never served a day in combat.

Who gives a fuck, it's not a instructive documentary for soldiers on how to into war. What a retarded opinion.
It's funny how much people compared it to Saving Private Ryan, when they're pretty much polar opposites tailored to different audiences.

It's not quite as retarded as your grammar.
the words 'flick' and 'malick' should never appear in the same thread
seriously, if you've seen a malick film and thought it was "pretentious", or "2deep4u", do yourself and everyone else a favor and off yourself because you are the world's leading exporter of turbopleb

As Kermode called it, "saving Private Ryan, for clever people"

>One story from these early days was offered by Martin Sheen, who detailed a fight Malick had with his producer. "Terry beat the hell out of him," Sheen says. "In true Texas style - he was so Texas. Didn't even hesitate, just started swinging. Terry just whupped him. If more directors would beat up their producers, we'd have a lot more artistic freedom."

But some of his movies ARE pretentious. The first half of The New World is PAINFUL. When he's good, he's really really good. But anytime else, it's just drivel.

>implying pretentious= bad
the pleb infestation has become this bad, /film/ when?
Fell asleep twice watching this. It was so boring it woke me up then sent me off again.
Thats talent.
>>63577247
it's interesting that saving private ryan is the anchor for that remark, rather than it being "saving private ryan is the thin red line for dumb people"

Usually in these kinds of comparisons, you say that the less well known thing is the more well known thing for a specific audience.
Has anyone seen The Better Angels? The guy who made it was Malick's apprentice. It's pretentious and shit

I think they ware in theater next to Jurassic Park, so they probably encountered few pterodactyls while flying in huey's

>he doesn't realize the draft hasn't been in effect for decades and still proudly admits he enlisted

They came out at almost the same time.
I remember them both playing in my movie theater, and thinking TRL was so boring compared to SPR.
Years later I re-watched both and realized just how stupidly wrong my middle school self was.
Even if you watch The Thin Red Line on mute and just forget about all the rambling narration (not that I'm complaining about it, but people do) it'd still be a better film than Saving Private Ryan.

Malick's ultimate dadflick
>>63575870
it's not deep
it's really straight forward
