Babel was a very unique movie. And I was engaged mostly throughout. It does run a tad long but because there are multiple intertwined stories none of them feel too long individually. However, as the stories come together and you start to fill in the gaps you also start to ask why? What is the point? I definitely enjoyed this movie as a whole, but I will probably not watch it again. It was worth a try but to me falls a bit flat.
Each individual story deserves its own screen time and I applaud the movie makers for their abilities in such, but the sum of the parts feel like they don't add up to the value of the individual pieces.
