Babel

...Iñárritu lets the cultures collide and the different tongues babble, but offers no way through the mire, just a sensible awareness of the despair created by differences.

Until the movie hits overload and short-circuits, it's often brilliantly cinematic.

...surprises us by offering human insight rather than obligatory tragedy.

...an eloquent and electrifying depiction of mankind's increasingly fractured state...

En stor præstation, et nærmest altmansk overblik over personer, situationer og deres indbyrdes dynamik.

En fantastisk film. Men som sagt, en smula krävande.
