...that ultimately failed. The script, especially, tried way too hard.Director Inarritu and screenwriter Arriaga aimed for something rich and complex and profound, but Babel proved to be a strained effort overall and ultimately disappointing to me.
I've said below, that each of the Three Amgigos stepped up to the plate in 2006.
Del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth) and Cuaron (Children Of men) knocked their balls outa the park. Inarritu (Babel) swung hard...and missed. But if you don't swing hard, you never knock one out of the park.
Ironically, Babel was nominated for more awards in US than the other two, much better films from Inarritu's compatriots. So it goes.
