One of the Best films of the 1990's

Rating: 10/10 (6 February 2003)

This is simply a breath-taking cinematic achievement. This film lingers with you, weeks after seeing it, the same way 2001: A Space Odyssey did.
The true strength of Terence Malick's film, is that it plays like a continuous contemplation on the various themes associated with war. If you started watching the film in the middle, it still gives you the same effect.
