[REVIEW] Babel

I'm not sure I'd recommend this movie, as it's long, depressing, and really, at the end, nothing much of import has gone on. It's all about theeeemes and stuff like that. Magnolia/Crash-esque in its approach of several different, loosely connected stories about people in depressing situations, it makes points with its stunning photography and compelling performances by everyone except Brad Pitt, and also with the scene at the nightclub, which is one of the most memorable scenes I've seen in quite a while. The ending is also perfect.
Anyhow, not for everyone, but I'm going to give it:
FOUR (****) STARS (****)
