Review of Biutiful (2010)

By Beth Accomando (509) for KPBS.org (509) on 29 Jan 2011

Iñárritu does the actor no favors by putting him through the existential wringer every step of the way. Uxbal suffers for all our sins…

By John Beifuss (1,947) for Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) (1,944) on 28 Jan 2011

There's something liberating about Gonzalez Inarritu's hubris -- his insistence on treating his characters the way God treated Job or Jesus…

Review of Biutiful (2010)

By Andrea Gronvall (422) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 28 Jan 2011

Cinematographer Rodrigo Pietro grounds the ghostly encounters in grainy imagery, his unobtrusive handheld camera and deeply saturated colors…

This elegiac fable has such compassion and moral purpose that it's possible - necessary, perhaps - to forgive its lapses into cliché and contrivance…

Review of Biutiful (2010)

By Tim Robey (1,578) for Daily Telegraph (UK) (2,495) on 27 Jan 2011

Review of Biutiful (2010)

Biutiful is a pretentious and maudlin indulgence in melodramatic overkill. In short, an Oscar nomination for Bardem…
