Anyway, I thought Malick's direction was fantastic and every one of his "indulgences" paid off.

Then again, I have a very different view on The Tree of Life than most, which is probably why it was my favorite film of 2011.Robert MacFarlanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17264501767985746886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-59111643505395142202012-11-06T21:33:46.877-05:002012-11-06T21:33:46.877-05:00kook160: I felt it very much sympathized with the ...kook160: I felt it very much sympathized with the son and against the father. I also have to admit after watching the film again I was unimpressed by Hunter Mccracken's performance, which far too often was just the same look of anger on his face. I really did not feel any of this realization about his Father through his performance.

And I usually like him a lot, that's why it's so painful.

I felt that entire portion of the movie was about Jack trying to figure out his own feelings on everything, not just limited to his father. I'm surprised you didn't mention his best scene, the "I'm nothing" speech. I cry every time. I find the reconcilation between him and the son so damn moving.Robert MacFarlanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17264501767985746886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-15286565295827869802012-11-06T20:45:07.705-05:002012-11-06T20:45:07.705-05:00=D haha uh oh ive annoyed someone lol I didnt thin...=D haha uh oh ive annoyed someone lol I didnt think he was as good as Freeman but I didnt think he was terrible at all, he aint Clooney =DRatedRStarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-19202330644615598392012-11-06T20:30:13.840-05:002012-11-06T20:30:13.840-05:00RatedRStar, He's TERRIBLE in Se7en!
