Malick is employing his usual style of montage and voice-over narration but in a new, contemporary setting that makes Wonder feel like his most vital work in years.
Overview
After falling in love in Paris, Marina and Neil come to Oklahoma, where problems arise. Their church's Spanish-born pastor struggles with his faith, while Neil encounters a woman from his childhood.
Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Love is a many-splendored thing, except when it isn't in To the Wonder, a wispy romantic movie about the death of a romance.
What is most affecting is Malick's intent. He plainly devised the story to give him a series of panels for the expression of feeling.
The movie plays like an undercooked pie that hasn't had enough time to cool and settle.
Essentially it's an agglomeration of Malick's worst stylistic annoyances.
