Review of Babel

Babel (I) (2006)
9/10
Great film best that Brad Pitt has possibly done
14 November 2006
I was luck to see the film at the San Sebastian film festival.It was only after I had attended the press conference for Babel, and heard the comments from members of the press, that I decided to stay up to midnight to watch the next performance of what I can only say was a breathtaking film. I have not been a huge Brad Pitt fan, I do enjoy his movies but they tend to be superficial. Now after Babel I cant wait to see what he will do next. Four stories linked by a Winchester rifle and a single incident on three continents.

Brad played a fifty year old man and trying to address problems in his marriage gave a performance that must make him think about becoming more of a serious actor. I would have to say that Yuriko Kikuchi's as a deaf Japanese teenager was stunning.

Go see this film it is definitely worth it.
