I plan on seeing it soon. I absolutley love inarritu's other two movies: amores perros and 21 grams. If Babel is anything like them I'm sure I'll like it too.

Haven't seen it yet. From the preview, looks like same concept as "Crash" but is more direct to Pitt, Blanchett characters. I think i'll wait for the dvd.

same concept as crash, completely different content, acting, visual impact, emotional drainage. worth the $3.75 i paid

it's either this, or watch a stupid remake of a Hong Kong classic.

This was just an okay movie to me.. it looks like it's got about 7 nominations.. that figures.. it holds your attention.. and I'm not there just waiting for it to end..

I rate it a B.. and worth seeing.. but only once..

it definately has some weird action..

Finally rented it. I can safely say it's classic Inarritu, what with the interwoven plots (ala Amorres Perros).

3 and 1/2 out of 5, but not at the absolute absolute end of excellence. Worth checking out, but both 21 Grams and Amorres Perros were better.

I like the interwoven plots kind of films like Crash and strangley enough I kind of liked Grand Canyon and some Robert Altman flicks, but this one bored me. Not any of the individual stories pulled me in. It was more watchable than lots of bad movies on Netflix but I thought just average.

I forget what the other film of that genre had Tom Cruise and the raining frogs at the end, I kind of liked that one too. Memory goes first.
