“THE MOST MOVING AMERICAN [FILM] IN THE FIFTEEN YEARS I’VE BEEN A CRITIC”
Matt Zoller Seitz on The New World:
Other people direct movies. Terrence Malick builds cathedrals. “The New World” is my new religion, easily the most pictorially innovative and moving American studio release I’ve seen in the 15 years I’ve been a professional movie critic.

Surprised to see that Kati Outinen isn’t in this one, since she was in the other two.
