Title: TEDIOUS & BORING
Product review: People go to movies to be entertained which Malick keeps forgetting when he directs his "pretty" pictures. Yes, he is a masterful cinematographist but a boring director. This film is all about long, boring snippets of characters thinking out loud. Do we really need these voice-overs ? Actors are supposed to act either through their voices or expressions. Viewers don't need the director's voice overs to translate their feelibgs. The film is slow moving and confusing. The editing is atrocious. Acting is so so. Everyone seems to be in a perpetual depressed state - just like I was after only 30 minutes....I sat through it all hoping its pace would change but no luck. Luckily I didn't waste 12.00 but only 3.00 renting it. Malick should rethink the way he makes movies because I'm sure they must all be money losers.
