Man. THIN RED LINE. I read that book then I saw the movie. The book is brutal. As for the movie, it is just beautiful to look at.

The Thin Red Line! Finally someone reacts to it!

Jonathan Patrick

The Thin Red Line has most of the main cast in it, from Casualties of War (1989) homage from the director.

Duncan

Looking forward to the Nic Cage action and then further Nic Cage action down the line with "Face/Off (1997)"

I read the book a few years before the movie, and for its faults, it's still a pretty good adaptation for what is a very difficult book to put on film. Typical Malick beautifully shot movie. A shame none of the thousands of feet of cut footage will never be put back in

Philip Davetas

There's a lot of content that was cut for sure. I mean, at least from the book. But I understand why. But a lot of Terrance Malick's flicks are great to look at. Me, my personal favorite, is BADLANDS, which is pretty much what turned into a movie called TRUE ROMANCE.

Smooticus

Con Air is the Michael Bay-est of Michael Bay movies. A lot of bombast without much substance, but still a fun ride - even if you forget half the movie about 30 minutes after the end credits

Paul Cox

I believe Badlands was the first time Martin Sheen did his putting-on-a-coat-in-one-move trick on film. There's a supercut out there of every time he did it on The West Wing.

Oh, wow, The Thin Red Line! I’m interested in Daniel’s reaction to this since he is a big fan of Saving Private Ryan. They both were released in 1998, and I think they’re both brilliant WWII films.

War films definitely not my thing con air however is a lot of fun and seeing Nicholas cage with long hair is ummm something lol

Alex

CON AIR!!!! :)

Florian Meier

Yeah !!! Con Air is Great !!! Love John Malkovich !!! You must watch "In The Line of Fire" from 1993 with Clint Eastwood and John Malkovich, one of my favorite Action Thriller of All Time

David Crabtree

Con Air isn't a Michael Bay film. It's a Simon West film.

David Crabtree

Con Air is a great film, you guys are in for a treat!

Smooticus

You're absolutely right. I stand corrected. Bruckheimer was a producer which is probably why it feels like a Bay movie to me. But there isn't all the camera movement which dhoukd have been a giveaway

Scott Kerr

I hope this doesn't sound insensitive, but The Thin Red Line seems like such a beautiful film. I know it's a war film, but it has many anti-war elements to it that have a somewhat spiritual reality associated with them. It's hard to explain. You'll have to see for yourself.

James Miley

Can’t wait for your Con Air reaction. One movie that I never get tired of watching.

Domino

OMG OMG OMG THE THIN RED LINE 😭 One of my favorite movies of all time. I'm so excited to watch you guys react to it. It's not everyone's cup of tea since most people expect action when they watch a war movie, but this movie is so beautiful... there are no words. 🥰

David Wilkins

The Thin Red Line is like no other “war” movie, ever. For that reason, many people don’t like it. But it’s a profound work of art that I love. I prefer describing it as an “internal war movie”, where much is described through the internal conflict of individual characters.

Luetin

As many have said, Thin Red line is amazing piece of work, its a really tough call between this and Apocalypse Now. Really interested to hear your thoughts about the story, the characters and the overall theme of the film both the literal and metaphysical.

OddThomas

If you want more Malick after Thin Red Line I highly recommend Tree of Life with Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain.

Miguel Tapia

Con Air is one of my favorite action movies of all time

Paul Cox

I'd also recommend Days of Heaven, but maybe for an off-channel watch. It's a brilliant film and gorgeous to look at, though it's a real slow burn (like much of Malick's work) making it kind of difficult to "react" to.
