One of the most brilliant WAR movies ever made

Rating: 10/10 (17 June 2000)

The Thin Red Line is one of the most brilliant WAR movies ever made. Set in 1942 in the battle of Guadacanal The Thin Red Line is about the lives of the men in the war. The movie goes into the soldiers mind and what he is thinking. I thought this movie was brilliant because the movie had great acting and the directing by Terence Malick was spectacular. This is Malick come back film from 20 years. Malick also directed Badlands and Days of Heaven.
The acting in The Thin Red Line was also brilliant. There were many actors in the movie, I thought the best actor in the movie was James Cavietzel(Witt). I thought hi s role was great and he portrayed the character great. I thought this movie deserved the academy award nominations but its ashame it didn't win any. The Thin Red Line also had beautiful cinematography and setting.
I recommend you see this great movie. If you like action,war,drama see THE THIN RED LINE.
