The Thin Red Line (1998)

Rating: Null/10 (8 August 1999)

An all star cast and good performances just could not save the plot of The Thin Red Line. The plot for this film is really boring infact its so boring that it made Beloved look like Jackie Chan flick. The plot is so slow and the war scenes are not that exciting. Saving Private Ryan is great movie but this one is awful. I just could not like this movie even when I try to. I could not believe this film was nominated for best picture, the film critics said it was good but not that good. The Judges nominated this film for over the Truman Show. The Truman is one of best films if not the best movie that came out in 1998. The soldiers sit around think a lot and we can hear their thoughts of course. This becomes more and more annoying as the film goes on. It was too long for such a weak war story. See Saving Private Ryan but avoid The Thin Red Line if you can. It's just not that great at all. Worst war movie I have seen.
