Like the last little bit you wrote about the poem, a nice closer. 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 5/27/12 at 08:05 PM Netflix is a good assist in finding treasures like this.

I haven't seen this film and now that mentioned it, this does look like a thankful watch. It's also interesting how you mentioned the creation of the know universe and the presence of the Lord(I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to seeing him in the beautiful valleys of heaven one day). Anyway, a wonderful job done sir. I do hope you have a wonderful weekend and God bless you. Thanks, come back and see me. 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 7/03/11 at 10:31 AM Always appreciate your insight and comments, Dylan.

Sounds like a great film, I might see it at the cinema. 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 7/03/11 at 04:09 PM Thanks, and yes, this is a movie that needs to be seen on a theater screen. The creation segment is absolute cinematic brilliance... the comparison to 2001 wasn't just a throwaway. Thanks for reading and commenting. 0 Replies \| Report Abuse Mr. Taylor on 7/03/11 at 09:19 PM Great review, my friend. So few have been able to see it so its good to read this. It immediately made my TOP 100. You were out for a while when I posted my review a few weeks ago but I'd love to see what you think of it when you have time. Yours is terrific. I loved the whispered voiceovers too. 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 7/03/11 at 10:56 PM I'll go read it right now. 0 Replies \| Report Abuse AndysFilms on 7/04/11 at 02:05 AM Excellent review EG! This one is most definitely going on 'The List'!... :) 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 7/04/11 at 08:56 AM And on my "best of the year" list as well. Thanks. 0 Replies \| Report Abuse Bill T. on 7/05/11 at 07:47 AM Looking forward to my second viewing of this as my first one left me a bit empty with all the ambiguity. While I don't mind a film meandering through a story, Tree Of Life felt overbaked, despite it having alot to like. Maybe my second viewing will help me dig it more but fine review nonetheless! 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 7/05/11 at 11:33 AM Malick's las film, "The New World,"left me cold the first time... I appreciated it more later. This one I connected to immediately and I too would like to see it again for the sheer enjoyment of the sound and images, much as one might view Koyaanisquatsi, or 2001 repeatedly. But I've encountered those who share your initial opinion. Always happy when you drop by. 0 Replies \| Report Abuse Daniel Mumby on 7/05/11 at 08:23 AM Great review, I'll try and see this when it opens here on Friday 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 7/05/11 at 11:29 AM And I will greatly look forward to your comments. 0 Replies \| Report Abuse Lord Naseby on 7/07/11 at 08:11 PM I've heard from many that this one was great.

Great review! 0 Replies \| Report Abuse Bram S. on 3/22/12 at 09:01 AM Super review. I don't know what to think! Some people say it's awful, some people say it's mediocre, some people say its pretty good, and some people say it's a masterpiece. Who to believe?!?! 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 3/22/12 at 09:31 AM Well, Bram, you're going to have to see it for yourself. If you've enjoyed other Terence Malick films, say "Badlands" or "Days of Heaven," than I'm sure you'll like this. I warn you that the narrative structure is less than obvious at first, but immerse yourself in the sounds and images and clarity will come like a revelation. Enjoy. 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Bram S. on 3/22/12 at 01:05 PM Well, I was bored stiff by The New World, but that's really not my type of movie. I think (and hope) that I'll like it. 0 Replies \| Report Abuse

It opened in second place with $30 million plus domestically. These major studio epics tend to recover their costs through worldwide distribution anyway, especially when they're as good as this. I suspect word of mouth will give it some legs too. There's really nothing not to like. It's a quality film and ever so much fun to watch.

I think we saw two different films^^. Taylor Kitsch was ok but most of the rest (except for the "dog") were badly acted and better stereotypes. The effects were decent but the plot dragged along and there wasn't really much going on. I have also a problem with a world scientifically so inaccurate... I tried to cut this out but it stayed in the back of my mind. You're right about the 3D though, you literally couldn't tell wouldn't you wear the glasses. 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 4/24/12 at 01:50 AM Thanks for the comments, ray. Yes, I loved this film, and I'm into the John Carter books now too. I think a lot of people didn't recognize how carefully this was crafted. It's a grand adventure, beautiful to look at as well, and a movie I will add to my film library some day. 1 Replies \| Report Abuse Earth Giant on 4/24/12 at 01:54 AM By the way, you mentioned some bad acting.
