Konterr Brilliant and touching
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
hamza_mustafa66 My take on this movie is mixed. I loved the story of the movie, the sets, and the cinematography. However, i am not satisfied of the presentation of the move and the way the plot was presented and sometimes the scenes got confusing. Also i am not happy with Will Farrel's acting. Christian bale was classic as usuall. By the way, this is my first review ever, so i might be a bit off on some points.
Joe James Call this film what you want, but I call it boring. There's extremely little dialog. There's very little action. It's a very long film. Add those things up and you get boring. I really couldn't tell what was going on for the first half of the movie, then in the second half I realized that nothing was going on so there was nothing to understand. In place of dialog between characters you get bits of narration from different characters as the viewpoint changes from one person to another. You also get long silent scenes of people thinking or holding each other. Don't wait for some strong story line to emerge that pulls you into the movies or attaches you to the characters because that never happens. The morsels of action are a mystery since there's no clear motivation behind them.On the positive side, I will admit that the sets and costumes were well done. The film does pull together some acting talent, though it seems wasted.
webber-george This film had just about everything that I could wish for in a film, plus a whole lot more. My hat off to Terrence Malik as Actor/Director every piece he produces is a work of art every frame is like the brush stroke of a painter against canvas.If your looking for a standard run of the mill film this is not it! If you want to see exactly what the true art of film making is about then this is truly for you. And what a treat your in for. I am not sure why but I found this film to give me religious and spiritual feelings.This film has as much character as any human being. There are scenes with nothing but natural sounds. The scenery is just so beautiful and natural as well.You really most see this film.
mjones41-826-630736 I have no idea how this movie has attained such a high IMDb rating, it's truly terrible. Great cinematography, a decent cast, but such a stupid implausible story line stretched out way too long. If I had seen it in a cinema I would have walked out for sure. It's not just that it is historically inaccurate, it's just plain silly. If the "naturals" had wanted the British gone they could have easily killed them off in the first 30 mins. At one point there were supposed to be 38 British left, but count the people in the battle scene, they must be multiplying. And where the do the children come from?Don't waste your time.
