I don’t like Lynch, another vastly overrated filmmaker.
The more cerebral and entertaining version of Lynch is Cronenberg to me.
Yeah, it does have strong visuals but the characterization and narrative sometime is too slow paced for my liking taste.

I think your last point is accurate in that Malick (and Lynch) are not to YOUR liking. I think that's an important distinction to make rather than "they're overrated" or them being filmmakers that have a fundamental failing in their craft. I don't much care for Picasso's aesthetics but I'm not going to begin to insist that's his failing and that he just didn't know how to paint a woman the "right" way. It's just not to my taste.
