Até que ponto as histórias de pessoas desconhecidas podem se esbarrar numa dessas esquinas da vida? "21 Gramas" discute isso. E não é tão simples assim. O filme requer total atenção para compreendê-lo. Atenção esta que nunca será tão bem usada. Minha atenção se rendeu à "21 Gramas" e, ao final, não se arrependeu. Segundo filme de uma trilogia criada pelo diretor Alejandro González Iñárritu, "21 Gramas" surpreende da sua primeira cena até a última. O ponto mais alto e louvável da trama é seu roteiro seguro, complicado e intrigante. É incrível como esta técnica de narrativa quebrada funciona tão bem a todo instante no longa. Cada cena é única e os diálogos bem articulados compõe uma atmosfera tensa que porta-se sempre. O que mais me impressionou no roteiro Ã...Read more

I certainly love Iñarritu's direction of this super A film! The actors' acting will definitely get into your nerves and veins - in a serious soulful way. I am almost reluctant to post a review of this because, yes, it's way beyond the powers of my adjectival phrases. Iñarritu is a genius. :)

"How many lives do we live? How many times do we die? They say we all lose 21 grams... at the exact moment of our death... Everyone. And how much fits into 21 grams? How much is lost? When do we lose 21 grams? How much goes with them? How much is gained? How much...is gained? Twenty-one grams. The weight of a stack of five nickels. The weight of a hummingbird. A chocolate bar. How much did 21 grams weigh?" 21 Grams comes from the same creative team that were responsible for the successful powerhouse film Amores Perros (more commonly titled Love's a Bitch). Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu's 21 Grams is a moody, confronting, stimulating, mesmerising, often gut-wrenching and uncompromising character study that tackles some of ...Read more

How much did 21 grams weigh?" 21 Grams is an intense and expressive film that has left me astonished and in complete awe of it's ability to keep the viewer compelled for it's entirety? this is a film that certainly can't be ignored. 21 Grams tells a tragic story that is both riveting and gripping from the very moment it begins. It starts with even slight confusion and with a mystifying atmosphere, but as the film g...Read more

Beautiful,stunning,shocking,breath-taking, riveting,tearful,emotional,mesmerizing. That about describes this film.

The story is extremely non-linear, I believe the most non-linear film i've ever seen, and it took my a good half hour to start to finally follow along the story, and definately requires multiple viewings because of this. Highly recommended.
