This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Biutiful is a very cruel and heavy film, the script is competent , the cast is also competent , more emphasis is Javier Bardem this excellent, each field this actor surprises me more , is the direction of Alejandro G. Inarritu , and it makes a great direction , not enough to be his best work in the direction , even more so is very good, the picture is good and dark , the pace is good, the soundtrack is very good, and the film is full of moments and strong , the character Javier Bardem , Uxbal , is very interesting , one of the best characters of the actor, Biutiful is one of the best films of Alejandro G. Inarritu (which eventually would Birdman and the Revanant ) when the movie ends you feel the sensation a punch in the stomach . Note 8.6

Alejandro González Iñárritu's 'Biutiful' received a slew of mixed reviews upon its release in 2010. The naysayers found the grim tale of a doomed underworld 'fixer' Uxbal (played with a quiet intensity by Javier Barden) to be either too long, heavy-handed or grim for their tastes. In my view, while 'Biutiful' may not rise to the level of true tragedy, there are many worthwhile elements in it that may lead one to conclude that this is a rather well-put together melodrama.The world that Iñárritu has created rings true. For starters, his protagonist, Uxbal, moves about in a hard-edged section of Barcelona, peopled with immigrants, many engaged in illegal activities to support themselves. Indeed, Uxbal is a middleman for a group of Chinese immigrants who manufacture knockoff handbags. Uxbal also oversees another group of immigrants from Senegal, who are entrusted with selling the knockoffs; but when they turn to selling drugs, and the police move in to bust them, he must find another line of work for the Chinese.It just so happens that Uxbal and his low-life brother, Tito, are able to make a deal with a construction contractor, after they agree to allow developers to raise a cemetery where their father is buried. The foreman at the construction site agrees to hire the Chinese, even though they have no experience in construction. The beleaguered group are housed in a cold, dank warehouse, where they are soon to meet a most tragic fate.Two turns in the plot keep the action moving forward. Uxbal is first diagnosed with cancer and he must get his affairs in order so that arrangements are made so that someone will end up taking care of his two young children after he's gone. Uxbal cannot count on his estranged wife, Marambra, who suffers from bipolar disorder and their reconciliation fails, when she leaves their young son home alone (to punish him) after going on a short vacation. Marambra is a great character, played very convincingly by Maricel Álvarez. In a sense, she is the true antagonist in the narrative and thwarts Uxbal in making a stable home for the children.Another great character is Uxbal's brother, Tito, who represents Uxbal's dark side. Not only does he tempt Uxbal into using drugs at a moment that he is most vulnerable, but Uxbal ultimately discovers that Tito has also been fooling around with Marambra. The pulsating, dark scene in the nightclub highlights the brother's descent into depravity.The second turn in the plot occurs when Uxbal, thinking of the brutal conditions the Chinese workers are toiling under, decides to buy a bunch of cheap heaters so they can be somewhat warm at the warehouse (he buys only cheap heaters because his financial condition is in dire straits). Tragically, the heaters malfunction and all the workers die of carbon monoxide poisoning.Consumed with grief, Uxbal consults with a friend, a holistic healer, who tells him not to blame himself, since the event was an "accident." Later, he gives money to Ige, wife of one of Uxbal's Senegalese workers who is about to be deported, to take care of his children. Ige is about to leave with the money, but changes her mind, and ends up deciding to stay in Barcelona, and help take care of the children.Uxbal's decline is sad, particularly because underneath he's not such a bad guy after all (we can see that in his concern for his kids). Also quite tragic is Uxbal's longing for a father he never knew; we see him in flashbacks at the beginning and end of the film. The father also died tragically after fleeing to Mexico, as a fugitive from the Franco regime, before Uxbal was born.Iñárritu's focus on Uxbal as a tragic figure, may have gone on for a little too long. What's much more interesting is the world he inhabits, which Iñárritu conveys in an unflinching and efficacious manner.

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's movies are either deep, insightful, moving works of art (eg Amores Perros, Babel) or dull and pretentious (21 Grams). Biutiful, unfortunately, falls in the latter category. It had potential (as did 21 Grams) but it soon becomes apparent that getting through it is going to be an ordeal, especially when you note that the running time is 148 minutes!The central plot could have been condensed into a tighter, more interesting, quicker-paced 90-100 minute movie. Instead it is drawn out to its maximum extent. Has its moments though, but they are few and far between.Solid performances but everyone seems to be acting in slow-motion, in keeping with the slow pace of the movie.Overall, a good cure for insomnia.

I had never before such a thrill seeing a movie. Maybe its because I have never seen such movie. I even might say that it was better than Almodovar's movies because it is provocative without being provocative, being sad without making you sad, mind blowing without blowing your mind, serious without being serious, scary but not frightening you, funny without making you feel happy. Probably because it was realistic.The amazing city scenes which were captured in unique moments are speaking about exploring these places where the film was shot. The intrigue and the thrill started instantly. they escalated slowly like a blown balloon which was burst at the end. The dedication also was extremely touching – "To my beautiful old oak... my father".The movie shows a possible story (I only doubt that this man would have two children of his girl and would deserve such a life) which can happen everywhere around us. It shows where is hidden the real human thing, the biutiful, even not knowing how to spell it.In my opinion, amazing mixture of bounden duty, sent message, director's and actor's skills. And this is the reason why I rate it with the most possible stars.P.S. It is not for everyone's taste!http://vihrenmitevmovies.blogspot.com/
