The key here is to know that the movie is a ride Terrence Malick is going to take you on, be prepared with the right mindset. If you want a journey through life, then this is it.
The main aim of the movie is not to show you an interesting plot, nor stun you with its incredible cinematography and music so that your lives would be changed by some profound philosophical ideas. Rather, it's a movie begging you to be linked with the characters, most crucially to be linked with Jack, to remember things that we must all experienced in the past and might be long forgotten, for example our childhood, our loss of innocent, our bad desires, our struggle when we were growing, or to sum it up, the most crucial times of our lives which shaped us to be who we are now. Hopefully like Jack, you could reconnect those moments with love in the end.
Enjoy the ride, I doubt that you'll be disappointed.
