It is the best movie that I have seen in 1998

Rating: 10/10 (26 February 1999)

The Thin Red Line closely resembles Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now. The images are beautiful. I prefer it to Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan. It is an intelligent movie, a poetic and philosphical one. The actors are great. Terrence Malick shows us once again that he can do a great movie. Like Badland and Days of Heaven, it is a movie that makes you think and that is very rare in the movies nowadays.
