- Hey All! This one was an epic. It came from an angle I've never seen before in a war film, with it's philosophical approach. It really focuses on not only the mental state of the soldiers but also shows you their heart.

The most beautiful war film ever made- and the most poetic.
Mike, I really enjoyed your observations and thoughts on this. You are a perceptive viewer.
Thanks for the kind words, I am glad you enjoyed the video!
Technically there were still marines on Guadalcanal (mostly from the 2nd and 8th regiments) when Charlie company landed.
One of my very favourite films of all time. Acting, cast, soundtrack, cinematography, script, pacing. It just fires on all cylinders. I feel sorry for anyone who finds this masterpiece boring.
Witt felt immortal and understood; he went out with the calm like his grandma
My theory for the opening shot of the crocodile submerging into the river signifies that he was the 'alpha predator' of the jungle until the human soldiers arrived.
Nick Nolte's performance was outstanding. The Thin Red Line and Saving Private Ryan were both nominated for best picture in 1999 but Shakespeare in Love won. Go figure.
This movie along with Fury are my 2 fave WWII flicks, 1917 is my fave WWI and Hamburger Hill is my fave Vietnam film, Black Hawk Down is a great more modern film. I'm still waiting for that special one from the Afghan war. You gave a good reaction and I thank you & appreciate you're commentary and you're courage & honor serving in our military peace be with you.🇺🇸
Hamburger Hill is another excellent war movie. Brilliant acting from a bunch of (semi) no-name actors that later blew up to do bigger/better things.
Original cut of the film was reportedly 5 hours long. Malick edited it down and left big actors and large sections on the cutting room floor. Mickey Rourke was edited out among others.
I would have liked to have seen those 5 hours of film
@@fernandoja7897 Me too, but apparently Terrance Malick has shown no interest in a restoration project.
Good review also...
Far more realistic and much better than Saving Private Ryan where the storyline was quite unbelievable.
The book was better than the movie and is a work of genius. It is by the same name and is authored by James jones if anyone is interested. Ps: sorry to be critical about the movie but just calling it as I see it. Have a good read and prove me wrong.
By the way 1917 is incredible. The final 30 minutes of that film confirmed it as my number 1 of the past 5 years. Aftersun number 2. Portrait Of A Lady On Fire is my number 3.
