An average movie

On paper, it sounded like a great project, to have 3 great masters delivering each of them a short about love and sex. Unfortunately, it turned out to be rather underwhelming after all.  Indeed, Antonioni's segment was easliy the worst one of the bunch, Sodebergh's short was not bad but nothing really impressive and, eventually, only Wong Kar Wai's bit did actually work. 

'The Dangerous Thread of Things' by Michelangelo Antonioni
In my opinion, it was easily the weakest one of them and it is a shame that it will probably be the last movie directed by Antonioni. Still, in spite of these flaws, it was rather well directed but, unfortunately, it was just way too slow and symbolic for me. I just didn't get it, I guess. One good thing though, there was a very nice naked lady for half of the duration but that's it, there was nothing much to see here, I’m afraid and my rating was actually rather generous for this segment (06/10)

'Equilibrium' by Steven Soderbergh
It was a little bit better than the previous segment but it was still nothing great though. First of all, it was beautifully shot in black and white and then you had the always awesome Robert Downer Jr. But that's about it... Basically, the whole thing tried to be funny but it was not and the story was just not really interesting. (06/10)

'The Hand' by Wong Kar Wai
At last, this one was easily the best one of these short stories. Indeed, the directing was awesome, the story was quite fascinating and indeed erotic. On top of that, Gong Li gave a really solid perfomance. (07/10)

To conclude, it is not really a must see but considering that all the shorts are directed by some of the best directors around, it is still worth a look though.
