A Masterpiece!

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

The New World (2005) Painfully slow mess, Historical liberties, Plot with no focus. I prefer Meeko and Flit With some Colors of the Wind. No, Malick's art piece, To be felt rather than watched. Textured montages, With sweet soothing voice-overs Connecting man and nature. (Somonka is a form of poetry that is essentially two tanka poems, the second stanza a response to the first. Each stanza follows a 5-7-5-7-7 syllable pattern. Traditionally, each is a love letter. This form usually demands two authors, but it is possible to have a poet take on two personas. My somonka will be a love/hate letter to a film?) #Somonka #PoemReview

The saga of European colonization of the Americas is epic and dramatic in and of itself. The New World, by acclaimed auteur Terrence Malick tells the story of the English arrival at Virginia and the conflict between John Smith and his men and the native people led by Powhatan.There is definitely a spiritual air to the work as with most of Malick's films, and the point of view seems to be from the position of the natives, as the cinematography is very awe-inspiring and dazzling giving the experience of seeing something new to the viewer.The fierce violence and seriousness of the interactions between the English and natives is interspersed with touching romance between John Smith and the princess Pocahontas. Malick's romantic side shines brightly and the lovers story takes off swiftly.The identity of the characters is a key theme in the film, and with John Smith's capture by the natives and Pocahontas' conversion to Christianity, identities fluctuate to and fro with the underlying humanity of the characters providing a solid groundwork.The film is excellent, and beautiful artistic interpretation of the events of the colonization of Early America. Fans of Malick will recognize his wide-angle shots and off-screen narration. Those not familiar with Malick will still enjoy this film as a solid work.

This film had just about everything that I could wish for in a film, plus a whole lot more. My hat off to Terrence Malik as Actor/Director every piece he produces is a work of art every frame is like the brush stroke of a painter against canvas.If your looking for a standard run of the mill film this is not it! If you want to see exactly what the true art of film making is about then this is truly for you. And what a treat your in for. I am not sure why but I found this film to give me religious and spiritual feelings.This film has as much character as any human being. There are scenes with nothing but natural sounds. The scenery is just so beautiful and natural as well.You really most see this film.

Okay, let me start off by saying that I think Colin Farrell is one the WORST actors out there, and has ruined a lot of potentially good movies because of that. The only reason I gave this film an 8 is because of him and his awful acting.Beyond that, I cannot see why anyone could really hate this movie! Sure, it's not a settlers vs natives shootout action flick, but is that what we've all come to expect as movie goers in the 21st century? There are many other elements in his movie that make it great besides the action.People complain about the narration reflecting the lack of screen writing ability, but i think it's perfect for a film like this, exploring inside the mind of someone who is just exploring this new place at that point in history. A lot of the complaints I've read about this movie are unwarranted, unless you blame Colin Farrell :)
