Voyage of Time: Life's Journey

Stretching the breathtaking genesis sequence from 'The Tree of Life' to 90 insufferable minutes, Voyage of Time is a total misfire from Terrence Malick.

I'll tell you what: buy it, play it, mute it, no subtitles, put on your classic/inspirational/whatever music of your choice. Enjoy.

Disappointing work from Malick, who I admired so much in "The Thin Red Line", "Days of Heaven" and "The tree of life." The only saving grace in this work -- great choice of music as in all Malick films, mostly Arvo Part and Beethoven. I prefer Godfrey Reggio's "Qatsi trilogy" to this Malick venture. Even Kubrick surpassed Malick in the early man depictions in "2001--A space odyssey" compared to Malick in this film. The editing in this film and in "Song to Song" is incredibly pedestrian.

This is not a documentary, but one of my better screen savers lol.

Yes, stunning visuals, but a documentary is meant to be informative and educational, and this is neither.

The narrating (when present) is annoying. But, very stunning visuals.

When I have a cocktail party at my home, this is my backdrop visual on my 65" screen and it's awesome! Of course the volume is off and I have elevator music playing from my stereo and the combined effect is perfect (you're welcome)!

-5 for the docu, +5 for the visuals = 5/10 score

This movie is like a meditation over time. You cannot watch this movie with expectation of what it may taught you about time. Instead, you should watch it without any expectation and just feel the visuals and sound. Everything is as real as it can be, and as touching as it can get. This is truly a masterpiece about time.
