Knight of Cups Trailer





Straight off the bat, I'm a Malick fan. I got Tree of Life, I even enjoyed To the Wonder. However this, I really ain't sure. It's got to a stage where it's a parade of a pastiche. The eagle eyed of you will have noticed the first two images are from To The Wonder. 
It feels like a formulaic process of knowing what has been done before and recreating it with a very lose and slightly different plot and some great* actors.
In the same way all the greats have a style that can be replicated but of course never perfected. This however looks like a replication of a Malick film. 
At the end of the day it's just a trailer, for all we know big Terry may have a totally different film ready and all of this is on the floor.
We shall wait and see.
