I thought "Babel" was a brave effort

In Reply to: RE: I thought 21 grams far superior. And yet, it wasn't a great film, either, but posted by patrickU on October 29, 2010 at 11:54:27

tho' not a "great" film this had me thinking about it a long time after I 1st saw it... they nailed the Japanese part of the film with the police following up the rifles origins perfectly; unfortunately this last part of the film makes the first 4/5ths seem drawn-out and dull by comparison
While not a fan of Brad Pitt he did a better than average job of portraying the panicked tourist; tho' definitely there were others stealing the show, the Moroccan kids, the deaf girl

Maroccans Kids and the deaf girl ( was she really one, I think so ) YES they were the one to see.
Pitt over played it. A caricature. But I understand many of us are. ( a caricature)
