A terrible, terrible, terrible film (and that's being generous).

Rating: 1/10 (9 September 2001)

I have never seen a worse film than this. Most bad films have a so-bad-they're-good quality. This film can't even achieve that status because of its utter tedium and pretentiousness. Never have I waited for the end to arrive with such desperation and increasing disbelief in the sheer stupidity of the film I was watching
Terrence Malick has lived off his reputation for so long now that this film is the perfect example of The Emperor's New Clothes.
Stay away from this film if you wish to retain any semblance of sanity.
