The most extraordinary film I have ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (22 August 1999)

The greatest masterpiece in the movie history. It's not a simple film, it's the most sublime fusion of literature, music and figurative art. It's like a greek tragedy of the 20th century, Malick like a modern Sophocles. It's not a film on war, it's a film on the man's existence, his deepest emotions, his fears, his passions, his moral, ethical and theological questions. In short I never was so touched and impressed, not even reading Shakespeare's poems, or listening to Mozart's symphonies, or admiring Venice at night.
