If I strongly dislike the Malick movies I've seen (Thin Red Line and Tree of Life), are Badlands and Days of Heaven even worth trying?  A number of people have argued that they are more restrained than what he's been doing lately, but if they're too similar to his modern stuff I don't think it'll matter.
