Review of Babel

Want a decent movie? Watch Crash instead....
2 January 2007
This movie is a pity-full attempt to remake Crash with some different story lines barely connecting and some oldskool film-house antics like people feeling the need to appear naked for no other reason then being upset. The shaky way of filming some scenes is an even more annoying attempt at creating a film-house atmosphere for this 'movie'.

The surprises the plot brings are of no real connection to the storyline or the continuance of the movie. Throwing together a few different (some even dull) stories does not automatically make a decent movie however we movie lovers will have to put up with this crap for some time to come since the last few attempts did good at the box office and Hollywood starlets are lining up in rows of ten to do one.

Please let this movie cliché disappear for 10 years to finally return with a decent script, less transparent film-house tricks and a dried up supply of starlets...
