Man's Best Friend.

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2001
The Bottom Line: If it wasn't for Crouching Tiger, Amore Perros deserved to win Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars. Spectacular!!
Review: Rated R
(violence/gore, language, and sexuality)

Directed by: Alejandro Gonazalez I?arritu

my rating: A

Did you ever see a movie that parallels your reality? Did you ever see a movie that becomes reality? No, you...

Scenes From The Class Struggle In Mexico City: Amores Perros

Date of Review:  Mar 5, 2003
The Bottom Line: Probably closer to 3 1/2 stars, but still disappointing enough to keep it under 4.
Review: "Amores Perros" begins with an abstract shot of black asphalt, violently screaming past the camera, intersected by a white road line. It is an image we will see several more times throughout the film, as we will also revisit the fateful car crash...

AMORES PERROS: Dog Eat Dog.

Date of Review:  Apr 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: AMORES PERROS heralds the arrival of a major new director to join the ranks of Mexican Masters: Arturo Ripstein, Daniel Gruener, Carlos Carrera, Alfonso Cuaron. An unforgettable film.
Review: If we examine our lives, as AMORES PERROS examines the lives of its characters, we realize we are often closer to animals, especially our pets, than we are to our fellow workers, neighbors, families, friends, lovers -- even our children! In urban...

A B*tch of a Movie

Date of Review:  May 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: Personally, I would say skip it, but I always want to see all the nominees... and as you can see, the other reviewers liked it. Go figure!
Review: Perhaps this is the best bit of moveimaking to come out of Mexico. I am not really well enough informed to say that.
This movie won a lot of awards at different film festivals, and, as you know, was nominated by the Academy for best foreign...

Movie Review of Amores Perros (2000)

Date of Review:  Mar 12, 2009
The Bottom Line: Highly Recommended: Amores Perros is a great foreign flick that launched some strong careers. Direction, screenplay and acting are all exceptional.
Review: Amores Perros was the 2000 debut for Mexican director Alejandro Gonz lez I rritu. It was also the debut for writer Guillermo Arriaga and the two teamed up to develop their own signature style which would continue through 21 Grams and Babel. In many...

Mexican 3-D: Desire, Despair, Death

Date of Review:  Jun 5, 2001
The Bottom Line: Dark but oddly not despondent very violent film of angst in the hemisphere's largest city.
Review: During the first third of "Amores Perros," I was too busy sorting out what was happening on the screen to wonder if Mexico City has become so hell-like since I lived there exactly twenty years ago. There was more time to think about that during the...

Love's a Total B*tch, Especially in Mexico with a Bunch of Dogs

Date of Review:  Nov 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: Amores Perros is a Brilliant, Multi-Layered Masterpiece from the duo of Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu & Guillermo Arriaga.
Review: With the recent attention towards films of Latin America, a new wave has been emerging in different countries south of U.S. border. From Brazil, there's Fernando Meirelles and Walter Salles and in Argentina, the late Fabian Bielinsky. In Mexico, two...

A Crash Movie With Impact

Date of Review:  Apr 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: This entry in Oscar's Best Foreign Film category lost to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," but it's an amazing breakthrough for Mexican cinema - and nothing is as it seems.
Review: Beginning with a catastrophic car crash in the center of Mexico City, this amazing film spins off into a trilogy of tales about those involved - and their dogs!

In "Octavio and Susana," a young punk (Gael Garcia Bernal) wants to raise...

Love Is a B*tch

Date of Review:  Apr 13, 2001
The Bottom Line: Three tales for the price of one, this is a film filled with violence and action but it is very well told.
Review: Every once in a while a movie comes to isolated West Texas that has won an award at the Cannes Film Festival and has been nominated in the Best Foreign Film category. I saw such a movie today. It's a movie made in Mexico entitled "Amoresperros"...

Sound & Fury, Signifying Nothing

Date of Review:  Apr 4, 2004
The Bottom Line: Recommended as an entertaining and original film
Review: Mexican director Alejandro Gonz lez I rritu certainly set himself ambitious goals for his debut film Amores Perros, released in 2000, especially considering that his prior professional experience had been mostly as a disc jockey. It is an admirable...
