Review of The Thin Red Line (1998) by Maxwill — 15 Mar 2012
If you want a superfluous fairy tale, spoon-fed sentimental narrative, watch Saving Private Ryan*. If you've got the balls to sit with silence in your head and can take a contemplative question or two, without fearing a lack of answers -- and want to see a film -- watch The Thin Red Line. Those who complain about not seeing the point, miss the point while demonstrating it.

*Knocks go only to the writing/moralized plot of Private Ryan; the rest of it was well done, I liked it.
