Like most sequels...it does not top the first.
I'll agree that it probably doesn't top the first. But I still thought it was a great film.. and not even really a sequel of the traditional kind. It stands alone very well as it's own film.

Babel..this movie was very mediocre at best. Tried to hard to tie in all stories especially the Japanese one.
I'll grant you the link to the Japanese story was tenuous, but I think that probably shows that the movie didn't particularly "try" to link it in. To me the whole idea of the stories being linked wasn't particularly crucial. To me it was a character driven film.
In other films where the stories link up more successfully and intricately the device tends to take over and becomes a gimmick (a cool gimmick, but a cheap trick nonetheless). I think the story link ups in this film were understated and really not crucial to it's worth as a film.

Amores Perros is by far his best work.
If you want to watch a good movie watch 'Volver' an Almodovar film. I recommend this over Babel.
Both good films

naw, not this year. Brad Pitt was good, but there were too many other good performances in other movies as well.

young kids raised poorly, incest and all.
dumb mexicans making the wrong decisions with innocent children around.

I don't think this type of movie is for you. It just got nominated for Best Picture, so it's not like anyone can call it "awful"
While all your points are worthless, I will focus in on the easiest one to make you look stupid with.
The Japanese girl was fuked up because she was a deaf-mute who's mom had just committed suicide. You idiot.

Are you "just being retarded" again? Or is this particular post symptomatic of actual rather than feigned retardation?
