Babel (2006) – Brad Pitt

Posted on 2007 under Drama, Thrillers

Did someone actually say that this film was worth seeing? Who are these people? I don't know how I could put this film into words. Here it is, "IT JUST SUCKED". From beginning to the end I was amazed at how one movie could pull someones spirit so far down and not care to bring it back up to even a smigit close to were it began.

Let me start at the beginning. First of all the music. The music dragged me along. Their was not big slam or bang to wake my spirit up. It just kept dragging along making it feel like something very somber was going to happen the whole story line. Next comes Brad Pitt. Wow, he must really be depressed because I believe this movie and how sad every scence was is in direct connection with Brad Pitt's life. I mean could they have had even one scene that did not depress the hell out of me.

Then the side stories, one with the baby sitter of Brad's children. How stupid could someone get to bring children into Mexico. Especially, if the children are not your own. Then to compound this bad decision she decides to ride back into the United States with a drunk, loud mouth driver with a hot head. What a mess... And to top it off she leaves the children in the desert to find help not marking any way of how to find them. How stupid could you get.

Now the Asian scenes. This little girl, she was the only person in the movie that I really felt sorry for. But by the time I could fell sorry I was so caught up in the stupidity of the mexican baby sitter I almost just cut all the mess off and went to bed.

I did not see any redemming factors in this movie. I didn't she the moral or even why the movie was even made. It left me asking by Brad and his wife were even in the foriegn land. She hinted like something major happened in thier relationship. But they never revealed the problem. I wish I could say something good about this movie but I truely hated it. If Brad is this sad, I think he needs to leave..
