Three Hour Movie - Forty Minutes of Facial Closeups with No Dialogue

Rating: 3/10 (15 August 2013)

I found this movie infuriating to watch.
How many times must I as a viewer, submit to 6 to 17 seconds of a close-up shot to the character's face, when I have no contextual connection with that character?
Character development in this movie is an affront to the author.
This movie is the unwanted offspring of the graphic, well-acted, well-directed, well-scripted "Saving Private Ryan" and the acid, mystic, well-acted, well-directed "Apocalypse Now".
None of the parents want anything to do with this child.
Malick, you provide must for this child.
