I'm a big fan of anything Alejandro González Iñárritu does, his films are usually around a rating of an 8 at least but for me, this one I'm giving a generous 6.
The film plays along nicely at times and gives me straight forward direction and understanding but then we get the artist side of Iñárritu that perhaps should of been left alone or left out of this film.
You're ahead in this film thinking it's a really good then throughout you find that you're actually one step behind.
The safer more generic and parts of the film are intriguing, they keep you content or even happy but then the 'moments' too many 'moments' we see are just too much for me.
Even understanding bits of the offbeat uneven track it makes for a difficult watch.
Saying all this I enjoyed big parts of the film but with the 'moments' it doesn't quite allow for me full enjoy the film entirely.
