Jim Caviezel plays a lost soul who is passively suicidal and volunteers to sacrifice himself more than once. When he’s finally face-to-face with death, he freezes in shock.
>it’s actually happening. I’m about to die
Bravo Malick

Fricking hell, this would've been a perfect entry for that "Movies you recommended your friends didn't like" thread I saw the other day. Too bad I couldn't think of any off the top of my head.
Anyway, Thin Red Line was straight ass. Can't believe I recommended that shit to my friends thinking it'd be some cool war film. I'd liked the song from the soundtrack (Journey to the line) for years, and finally decided to watch it but asked my friends if they wanted to watch it too.
About 5 minutes in, I see John Travola and just think, terrible casting. And I love John Travolta, but he just was not a good choice to be an admiral or whatever he was. 10 minutes in we decided to stop watching. It was just so boring.
This but the absolute total opposite of everything youve said and stand for, which is most likely gay rights and not having a jawline.
Me and all my friends have strong jawlines, myself having the strongest. You're not as tough as you think you are, sport. Make one more moronic post like that again and I'll frick you up 80s style.
>and I'll frick you up 80s style.
Are you going to give him AIDS?
Good insight, I only saw Tree of Life but it was such an intense snoozefest it turned me completely off of Malick. But this post is making me wanna watch Thin Red Line.
Lmfao, good one. Love how we have fun on this site.
I love The Thin Red Line. My favorite is The New World, it has Christian Bale and Colin Farrell. Probably Malick's easiest film to get in to.
>10 minutes in we decided to stop watching. It was just so boring.
It's okay man, kino isn't for everyone. Fortunately there's plenty of marvelslop to keep you entertained.
You and your friends are plebs and I can beat the shit out of all of you.
Ok... you say it was bad? I disagree. It's really good at capturing the duality of man.
You should have read the book instead. Lots of gay shit that would have certainly kept your interest.
>He's literally me.
He's not frozen in shock but awestruck upon realizing he can accept death without fear and overcome himself
>Where’s your spark now
Sean Penn saw it coming
Shit movie. Not memorable at all. More drama bullshit. A war movie with no war.
Apocalypse Now is the apotheosis of war movies, what's the need for more war content? at least Kubrick tried to do something different with the first act of FMJ
>Apocalypse Now is the apotheosis of war movies
It's not.
Unironically it is Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers. War films are about battle, comradery, bravery, cowardice, adventure, savagery, but mostly battle, fighting. Thats what war films are about. No film has better battle scenes than Saving Private Ryan.
spoken like a true zog machine propaganda enjoyer
Lol
0/10
we get it anon dying for megacorporations is truly a brave goal
God you're such a moronic Black person. PLEASE read Heart of Darkness at least
you're talking about capeshit
>WHOAH DUDE THESE DUMB HICK GRUNTS ARE HAVIN HECKIN PROFOUND POETIC THOUGHTS, CONSTANTLY
turned this tripe off after 20 minutes
Reminded you of how moronic you are?
Same. No one wonder no one remembers it but everyone still talks about Saving Private Ryan.
I got this film when I was a kid when I was obsessed with war films and watched it a lot and have rewatched it as an adult and I still can not remember a single moment in this film apart from the guy getting his arse blown off with the grenade
daily reminder that if you don't appreciate Malick you likely have a malfunctioning soul
or you aren't a pseud
it's not too late anon, either go for a walk in nature or go to church. your soul can be fixed.
Platoon is superior
woooahhhhh grass and trees and oh my god is that a butterfly??!?? on a battlefield?!??! what is this great evil bro wheres it come from?? whos doing this??? huh??
Whoa is that le edgy post? Being 16 is great innit
I like your post, it's funny, and clearly you actually like the movie
>Jim Caviezel plays a lost soul who is passively suicidal and volunteers to sacrifice himself more than once. When he’s finally face-to-face with death, he freezes in shock.
person of interest?
I love Thin Red Line
Same its beautiful
essential boringcore
Antonioni is still like ultimate boringcore
distilled kino
>there are people who consider the tree of life his masterpiece and not the thin red line
such are morons. Same thing as homosexuals who like beer more than wine.
I think the only two "new" malick films that are good are Knight of Cups and Voyage of Time
Its definitely a New World but ok.
also a respectable choice.
True but a hidden life is great.
would have been better if big name actors didn't pop up in every other scene just to have a line or two of dialogue and never be seen again
I watched this and it didn't do it for me. Soldiers being poetic didn't work for me, and the pacing of it wore me down with time.
I see a lot of people saying they hated it when they were young and grew to love it as adults. I'm already well into my 30s, so I guess I'm just too stupid for it.
I was 14 when it came out and I always loved it
I think introverts and / or dysthymic people love it, extroverts just don't
Jim was such a great actor before ~~*they*~~ sent continuous dark magic his way after Passion.
i think Malick makes beautiful movies that are painfully long
