The Thin Red Line is one of the most underrated war movies of all time.

[@jonruffolo]

Calling it a war film is unfair and doesn't do it justice. It really isn't about the war but rather a poetic examination of human nature and nature itself and how nature is in this constant chaos with itself. It questions life and good and evil and what it means to live in a world so consumed in itself. War is just a backdrop in this film.

[@TuanNguyen-zc8ig]

mgs108tlou IT is still a war movie. The war as background further addressed the chaos between forces of nature, one of which is human. It's not just nature fighting against each other, we - as human beings - fight and kill each other too. A beautiful, artistic and humane picture. Although I love Saving Private Ryan, this is the SUPERIOR war film of 1998, and, yes, one of the most underrated war film of ALL TIME.

[@jonruffolo]

Tuan Nguyen Yes, it is a war film. But calling it just a war film is undermining what it really is. A typical war film, take SPR for example, focuses on a squad of men who face evil and have to fight hard to overcome it. It's a basic template that every war film follows, except TTRL. Just look at even the newest war films like Fury, American Sniper, and Lone Survivor (the best of the three). They all follow the same basic plot and basically say the same things. 'War is evil and it makes man do evil things.' Yeah, we get it already. TTRL takes this theme and blows it up, examining each particle with its beautiful, poetic narration and absolutely GORGEOUS imagery. TTRL is a war film, yeah. But I don't like to compare it to other war films because they don't gave much in common from a narrative and thematic standpoint. Also, other than SPR's incredible opening 20 minutes, TTRL has the best war scenes in any war movie I've seen. There are no quick cuts, no big heroic moments; the camera glides and tracks the battles, giving an increased sense of immersion. The superb sound design escalates this even further. I really don't have anything negative to say about this film other than the fact that you sure as hell better be wide awake and ready to pay attention and, most of all, THINK! Movies rarely make us think anymore but TTRL has stayed with me since the day I saw it and it somehow creeps into my daily thoughts. It is so relevant in my life and I'm infinitely happy that I saw it.

[@TuanNguyen-zc8ig]

Agreed.

[@jjnb57]

mgs108tlou I believe it is still a war film albeit a unique one. But you raise some good points.

[@aaronhayes5199]

This inspired song was written in 1990 by Benjamin Tekulu, one of my students at King George VI School in Honiara and was recorded at the SIBC studios in the same year by the KG6 King's Kids. Sony Pictures paid Benjamin a modest fee for using the song in the 1998 movie "The Thin Red Line", although obviously the song was not yet in existence in 1943 when the movie was set. Since that time the song has become popular worldwide especially with expatriate Solomon Islanders but the songwriter is largely slated as "unknown" - just thought I would correct that. The original lyrics in Solomon Islands Pidgin-English (Anglicised spelling for international audience) are: "Jesus you hol(d)em hand blong me, take-em heart blong me, heart blong me cry out for you Me no findem any good something long thisfala world, heart blong me cry out for you Jesus me come long you now (oooh) you take-em me thistime (oooh) (REPEAT) Papa mi talk thankyou long you, you send-em son blong you, for die, for sin blong me Whichway (Waswe) you re-ready for him, by-by him he come makey-two time more."

[@Amnesia2Morrow]

? Thought this was a traditional song? It was only written in the 90s?

[@willfafale]

Met Benjamin the other day. He was paid $5,000 USD. A small fee now.

Hans Zimmer has done some amazing work for movie soundtracks. I think too few people realize that a good soundtrack is part of what makes a good movie and it's just as important or in some cases more important than good visual effects.

[@noobfromhell563]

more important ! dunno why everyones about new graphic effects it doesnt make a movie better

[@ReubenVictoor]

I don't believe Zimmer wrote this. These hymns are traditional melanasian songs, Zimmer is never credited for them. Personally, for this movie, I oddly found Zimmer's music to be forgettable and these traditional songs to be what really gives off emotions

[@ashesmandalay1762]

Great, but this isn't a Hans Zimmer song. I don't think Zimmer usually composes in pigin English.

[@thierrygoncalves2338]

I fully agree with you !

This is a spot on accurate connent, Zimmer is about as good at soundtracks as it gets, Carter Burwell is another, he does lots of work for the Coens.

I know everyone has different taste & opinions. But in my opinion TTLR is far better war movie than Saving Private Ryan. Its Cinematography, Original Score, Poetic Lines... everything is just perfect..

[@Amnesia2Morrow]

Agree, I think a lot of people think that. Saving Private Ryan is good at putting you in the visceral theatre of war, with a simple story/morality/sentimentalism -and countless imitators have followed suit. TTLR is not just a war movie it's a 'Life & Existentialism' movie.
