Featured Comments/Tips
Pretentious as a movie that attempts to pose as a poetic epitaph to a romance. Breathy, heavy handed narration makes your skin crawl with the clichés and contrivances. An unbearable movie I chose not to see till the end.
i'#39;m a sucker with this kind of film but all that running catch me was so annoying. and affleck barely saying anything makes him so non-existent even if he'#39;s almost at every scene.
A film of great beaty but not much else. Affleck = Handsome
Beautifully shot as always but I found the whole movie to be a bit too weightless for my taste. Seems to me that most people spend their day running around in the fields in this movie.
Looking beautiful! #onmywatchlist
wonder where to gentle movie by the master but not so entertaining but great visuals as always

“Life's a dream. In dream you can't make mistakes. In dream you can be whatever you want.” ‘To The Wonder’ is a movie directed and written by Terrence Malick. However the movie will always be known to me as Roger Ebert's final review. His points are clear and thought-provoking, even if I don’t always agree with him. I loved his take on Malick and I bet Malick would have as well. So this gave me more of a vivacious viewing experience. While I wouldn’t recommend it to a conventional audience, as it lacks any structure that people who haven’t be exposed to his work would find insufferable. And it’s something that I can’t see myself watching again, but it’s a movie that explains nothing, yet shows everything. A draining, but rewarding experience. When I mean rewarding - like something you reflect on in the next few days. There’s so much beauty on screen with the beautiful score and beautiful people. Bringing it all to life through the lens of Emmanuel Lubezki amazing camera work. The little dialogue didn’t distract from the great performances that was both playful and grounded. At times it loses itself within the wonder. A bubbly and a very current movie that can be hard to stomach. Malick seems more interested in capturing moments than anything else. There is a story, just small and simple enough for an explosive impact. It’s not for everyone and I'm sure that Terrence Malick is perfectly fine with that.
> Not for everyone, including me! I usually like Terrence Malick's flicks, but not this one. His story narrations are always aims more on the action (not stunts) than the talkings. Besides, spectacular visuals are highlights and his trademark, and again, not in this film. He really tried, but it was so boring movie in the recent time I have seen one. Pardon me to mock him, but I had to say that the film looks like the one what Willem Dafoe trying to make one in 'Mr. Bean's Holiday'. Except here with me there is no Mr Rowan Atkinson/Bean to make the film an exciting with his genuine editings to add some fun stuffs. Sorry, it goes straight to my 'I should have not watched it' list. 2.5/10
