In all that time I’ve never read a review I’ve disagreed with more than this one. <br /><br />Babylon is an absolutely dizzying adrenalin rush unlike anything I’ve seen in a long time - so much so that I went back and watched it the next day to better take in the spectacle. Every shot is beautifully rendered, the acting is superb, the score is fantastic.<br /><br />I agree that many of the sequences are disconnected, but I felt this was intentional as each of the vignettes was presented as separate movie styles - musical, madcap comedy, action, the ‘epic’, a little horror short, and so on. <br /><br />In deference to Adam, this is absolutely a love it or hate it film with no in between. I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy it, but for me I’m so glad my daughter asked me to go see it. Easily the best film I’ve seen in years.

I tried to fall asleep, but I'm a giant and can't curl up in a theater chair.<br /><br />I like to think that I'm performing a service, watching bad movies so other people don't have to. Adam D.
