"The New World."
Rated PG-13.
At AMC Fenway, Loews Boston Common and suburban theaters.
Grade: B-
The world is probably not ready for "The New World," yet another sprawling historical epic starring Colin Farrell.
But the problem is not Farrell or the film's length, which has been reduced by 17 minutes by director-writer Terrence Malick since the film opened in New York and Los Angeles. The problem is the film's languorousness, naivete and the overwhelming sense Malick would rather be strolling through the Virginia woods taking still photographs than shooting this script.
