    It's not that bad. Granted it's not good enough to be nominated for 7 oscars or whatever it was but its still an interesting film that does have a point to it. Seems to have gone over most peoples heads tho. Its nowhere near as good as the directors previous film 21 Grams which was disapointing.

    I didn't mind it, agree with the acting and the cinematography - it was beautifully shot and the mixing was superb..

    I thought of it as a series of short stories rather than one singular film and thought it worked quite well... but then, plot line never has never really been preeminent in his genre of film..
