A really good movie

I already saw this movie but since quite a while ago, I was quite eager to check it out again. In fact, I used to have this movie on DVD for a while but I sold it at some point following one of my brilliant cleaning-up plans. It was kind of stupid because I really liked it a lot but, fortunately, I still managed to rewatch it at some point anyway. Anyway, since I really loved ‘Amores Perros’, I was really eager to check this flick and Alejandro González Iñárritu certainly didn’t disappoint me. Indeed, for his follow-up, Iñárritu already left Mexico for the US and made another hyperlink tale also written by Guillermo Arriaga and, this time, he had quite a neat cast at his disposal (Sean Penn, Naomi Watts, Danny Huston, Benicio Del Toro, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Melissa Leo, Clea DuVall). It was rather impressive that even though he actually used a similar gimmick as in his previous movie, he still managed to reach such a spellbinding result. On top of that, to make the whole thing even more complicated than it already was, Iñárritu went also for a random chronology which can be a rather useless annoying approach but this movie is one of the very few where it actually worked. Anyway, to conclude, it was a really strong drama with some top-notch performances and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in Iñárritu’s work.
