A very beautiful BUT extremely boring film.

Rating: 6/10 (30 November 2006)

Terrence Malick' is an overlong but beautiful made film of the founding of Jamestown Va.in 1607, & of the trails & tribulations of 2 societies trying to get along. Of course when you have characters named Captain Smith & Rolfe & Pocahontas, we have romance. Colin Farrel & Christian Bale are fine as our heroes, , The actress who portrays teen age Pocahontas looks much too old to do proper justice to the part, She does a good job however. We have seen this tale many times, & learned this in school in the third grade.
There are a few battle skirmishes which are well done, This film should have been better edited, as it seems to go on forever,
Rating **1/2 (out of 10) 76 points (out of 100) IMDb 6 (out of 10)
