Title: What do others see that I don't?
Product review: After hearing all the hype about this movie, I went to see it in order to write a paper about it for a film class. I walked out, the first time in a very long time that I have walked out of a movie. I could not for the life of me comprehend what the critics saw in this movie, nor what AMPAS members saw in it that qualified it to be nominated for best picture. This is what happens when ego gets in the way of creativity. Meandering storylines that peter off into nothingness, characters that are indistinguishable from one another, and no clear concept of where the story is going. All the big names in this movie were wasted, only useful for the drawing power of their names on the marquee. Terence Malick should stay gone for another 20 years as far as I'm concerned. I am more convinced now than ever that Days of Heaven was just beginner's luck.
