The Thin Red Line [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Customer Review

This is an anti-war film of soft sounds, even though the battle scenes are staged grandiose. In existential-philosophical form of this masterpiece looks at the war times of all other pages. And in this he proposes "Ryan" by far. Must be evaluated positively that Director Malick, the Japanese does not show as a dull, cruel fighting machines, but as a desperate people, who are also struggling just to survive. The scene in which the GIs storming the hill, down the back and make the survivors herded into a pile, is of matchless intensity.
Just those sequence in which John Cusack with mates breaks the gun positions. Everywhere can be felt boundless grief. Nick Nolte is an extraordinary performance as a megalomaniacal boss who sacrifices human lives to the prestige will. Uncanny: the brief appearance of John Travolta as commander in chief. His cynical argument sounds worse than the cannon. And as Nick Nolte portrays the meaning of the war his protégé Cusack in manic frenzy, his opposite staring at him as if he had lost his mind. Poignant and Woody Harrelson's death scene.
What As for Sean Penn - his disillusioned view replaces thousand shots!
