Critical Consensus: "Spear," "New World" Are OK, Not Great

by Tim Ryan | January 19, 2006

Summary

This week at the movies brings us three culture clashes: Native Americans and Europeans ("The New World"), the Waodani people of Ecuador and a group of missionaries ("End of the Spear"), and, uh, werewolves and vampires ("Underworld: Evolution"). What will the critics say? Back to Article

Watch it as soon as possible. Unquestionably the best film of the year, and one of the most visually amazing films i've ever seen. who ever says hollywood was in a slump with their films this year was not talking about artistic values at all.

Definitely one of the best films of the year. Terrence Malick doesn't just make films, he creates visual poetry. One of my favorite young filmmakers, David Gordon Green, is hugely inspired by Malick. If you get a chance don't miss his first two films, 'George Washington' and 'All The Real Girls'.

Cheers,
Kevin
