Babel is an over-rated piece of shit of a movie
We just started using Netflix (welcome to 21st Century movie rental, YIPPEE!!). This one of the first movies we put in our queue because all those great ratings, and the description sounded really good.
What a fucking boring snore-fest. This movie would've been good at around 100 minutes instead of 140. And if you cut out the storyline of the children and mexicans which had nothing to do with the rest of the story. And if the Japanese storyline connected for more than 10 minutes. And if the japanese girl who got naked didn't look like an asian, 14 year old version of the Frankenstein monster, with the same vocalizations.
There was no redeeming quality to this movie whatsoever. It just dragged along the whole time. There was no climax to the movie. Utterly and totally predictable the entire time.
Fuck the critics. Just because Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett are in a movie, does mean it's 3.5 stars. I can't believe this won the Golden Globe for best drama. Was it running against a movie that details the plight of a lone Sunday morning turd, fighting to survive against the inevitable undertow of modern day latrine life?
Actually, I would rather watch a log swirl mesmerizingly around a toilet bowl for 143 minutes than ever watch Babel again.

In other news, my tattoo was finally completed after 18 total hours of work two weeks ago. Pictures as soon as it's fully healed up. I didn't post pics of the second to last session so the difference between the last post and this is pretty dramatic.
