A very unconventional film. This is something most people are not going to like or have the patience for. It has no action or snappy dialogue. There are long stretches of time when no one says a thing. Director Malick actually leads us from the 1950s back to creation and through evolution. In fact we bounce from Brad Pitt to dinosaurs and then back to Brad again. Most of the time is spent with Pitt and his family but I enjoyed the early scenes of outer space and cosmic creations more. It was very impressive and awe-inspiring. But it's important to note that I am a big "2001: A Space Odyssey" fan. The ending frustrated me and will likely frustrate almost everyone who views it. I don't think I'll ever watch this again but I give it high marks for how different it is.
