These whispered ruminations are beautifully written, but whose voice are we hearing?

The New World isn't Terrence Malick's best, but it's guiding him in the right direction.

fresh:
The New World laps over its audience like water on a deserted beach, moving so quietly that you almost don't notice that it's enveloped you.

rotten:
The New World is stately almost to the point of being static and thus has trouble finding a central story around which to arrange itself; it's not quite the thin dead line, but it's close.
– Stephen Hunter,

rotten:
He [Malick] swoons for his own well-honed image as a painter of woodland idylls, a man who leaves no sway of wheat or ripple of water unmet by his fatherly gaze.
