I watched Babel for the first time tonight, and I kept asking myself why did this movie win so many awards? It was a good movie don't get me wrong,but if you have watched Crash before you might find Babel somewhat disapointing. Both movies have pretty much the same set up, a bunch of pretty tramatic story lines all coming together at the end of the movie. Crash had much more tough provoking stories coming together in a meaningful way. Babel just threw up some stories that they found some way to tye them together, in both movies they deal with sterio types and lack of communication. But Babel contradicted it self! As Im sure many of you have heard or have made a stupid joke about Asian sex sterio types...One of the main storie lines was about an Asian Girl who is trying to have sex, the entire movie you see this girls vagina. I mean I like vagina as much as anyone else, but I thought that the plot was lacking PLOT. If your a person that likes good movie with good story lines Babel in my opinion, lacks. I diddent walk away with much. Please let me know what you think.
