Reviews in German: "Ein Filmkunstwerk, mal medidativ und poetisch,mal aufwühlend und grausam - Malick schuf ein überwältigendes Gleichnis vom Krieg" (TV-Today)

"Regisseur Terence Malick kehrte nach 20 JAhren Hollywoodabstinenz mit einem betörenden, philosophischen und poetisch gefilmten Kriegsepos zurpck. THE THIN RED LINE kann in dieser Hinsicht nicht mit dem kurze Zeit zuvor erschienenen SAVING PRIVATE RYAN verglichen werden, denn Malicks Film ist völlig anders - aber dennoch nicht weniger genial. Der Streifen lebt von der Spiritualität und Subjektivität der Akteure sowie den medidativen Aufnahmen, die in krassem Kontrast zur Unmenschlichkeit des Krieges stehen. In Minirollen sind übrigens auch die Superstars George Clooney und John Travolta zu sehen. Trotz siebenfacher OSCAR-Nominierung erhielt das Meisterwerk aber keine der begehrten Goldstatuetten." (tele 46/2004)

"...eine bildgewaltige Meditation über den schmalen Grat zwischen Wahnsinn und Vernunft..." (Stern)
