Reclusive director Terrence Malick (who has only produced 5 features to date since 1973) brings us this brilliant, thought-provoking moodpiece in which nothing much happens, and yet everything happens. This includes a mesmerizing extended sequence depicting the birth and history of our universe (yes, there are even dinosaurs). In the main timeline of the film, we find Sean Penn's character reflecting back on his childhood years growing up, dealing with life, love, sex, death and everything in between. A very introspective and humbling cinematic experience.
