A highly unique war movie as it appeals to a person's intellect. At times it drags a little but the action scenes are really good. With each successive viewing of this movie, I develop a greater appreciation of it.

Too bad this movie was overshadowed by Saving Private Ryan. This movie is a bit more art house but definitely worth a watch

The fact that people call this film pretentious and boring blows my mind. I have watched it several times and every time it plays I am glued to the screen. This movie grips me. It grips my soul and my being. It is so beautiful yet so painful. Malick does a superb of conveying that these men are not only fighting a physical war, they are also fighting a mental and emotional war. I love the scenes of Caviezel interacting and frolicking with the locals. I love the scenes of Chaplin reminiscing about his wife. I love the stills of the grass blowing in the wind. It may seem insignificant to some viewers but showing it after specific acts meant so much. This movie is perfect. I honestly did not know it was almost 3 hours long. Even if it were 6 hours I would still be glued to the screen each time it played. A great piece of art work. Oh and the musical score is also one of the best.

A must have for anyone who loves war movies looks great

good actors. long film. seemed to drag too much at times but the action scenes were good.
