on 12/6/2017 had this to say:

"Operating from their war-ravaged backdrops, both films go on to assess deeper truths about human conflict in general, though The Thin Red Line was much more successful in this regard, as Malick had a better understanding of his vision. Apocalypse Now conveyed a rather ambiguous message, and I have a feeling Coppola didn't intend it that way."
