The New World Ratings & Reviews
Mike
October 11, 2024
A beautiful and trance-inducing film, focussed on the love between people and the love for nature, created by Terrence Malick "Mother, where do you live? In the sky? The clouds? The sea? Show me your face. Give me a sign. We rise... we rise. Afraid of myself. A god, he seems to me. What else is life but being near you? Do they suspect? Oh, to be given to you. You to me. I will be faithful to you. True. Two no more. One. One. I am... I am." The New World is another thought-provoking Terrence Malick film that I love for it’s philosophical and abstract aspects. His cinematography is yet again very dreamlike. These dreamlike visuals make you forget everything around you. They immerse you into the love between characters and the love between characters and nature. It’s not just the story, characters and underlying meaning that are interesting, but also the way these aspects connect with the slow moving and intimate nature shots. Combine this, with the beautiful score by James Horner and other classical composers, and you will have a piece of art that stimulates your visual and audible senses. This results in an deep connection with the characters, their choices and their love, during the film. All in a dreamlike experience. The arrival of the ships, seen from the point of view of the Native Americans, is one of the best cinematography I’ve ever seen. This camera position places the viewer into the perspective if the Native Americans, which lets you feel the mystery and fear these people felt looking at the massive ships invading their home. The camera pans through the woods, with Richard Wagner’s Das Rheingold Vorspiel starting in the background slowly getting louder and taking over, creating a beautiful and immersive scene.

Just beautiful.

If I think I'm mostly going to keep coming back to [the 172-minute] cut (and I do hope, someday soon, for a Mr. Arkadin-like 3-cuts comparative DVD set) it's because it feels most fully realized.
Newsweek
David Ansen
These whispered ruminations are beautifully written, but whose voice are we hearing?
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
For this and this alone Mallick should be applauded. His epic of an old world giving up and a new one taking over isn't a masterpiece. But it is different, daring to look at complex historical issues with intelligence and an unwaveringly piercing eye.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
Malick's painterly images and meditative voiceovers are not for me the overwhelming force of nature they are for some, but I'm willing to be swept along by them, if what they have to say is potent enough.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
... there is just too little character and story to sustain the long middle section.
Slate
Dana Stevens
The New World isn't Terrence Malick's best, but it's guiding him in the right direction.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
The New World laps over its audience like water on a deserted beach, moving so quietly that you almost don't notice that it's enveloped you.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
The New World is stately almost to the point of being static and thus has trouble finding a central story around which to arrange itself; it's not quite the thin dead line, but it's close.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Through elliptical and seemingly oblique methods, he [Malick] forges moments of staggering emotional power.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Like the best music, this film elicits emotions rather than manipulates them.
Houston Chronicle
Bruce Westbrook
Malick is so content to tell the tale through mood that he neglects its meaning.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Erb
A movie that is at once prosaic and abstract, breathtakingly beautiful and excruciatingly obvious, compelling contemplative and deadly dull.
Denver Post
Michael Booth
The New World is a poetic force at once wrenching and soothing.
CNN.com
Paul Clinton (CNN.com)
Watching The New World is like watching a snail cross an eight-lane highway.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Malick has a gorgeous talent for capturing supernal landscapes, for conveying their sorrow, and it would be a loss if he stopped directing again at a time when Hollywood is more starved than ever before for the personal touch.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Self-indulgent, gorgeous, maddening, grueling, ultimately transcendent, it's a Terrence Malick movie all the way, and possibly the director's most sustained work since 1972's Badlands.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
The ponderous narrative lacks so much focus that it will likely leave most viewers squirming in their seats.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
Malick appears to consider this an epic tale, but beyond its 2-hour-plus length, the film never quite reaches the scale he's after.
