I don't even know where to start with this personal critic, I'm impressed about everything in this plot... since the very beginning it caught me off guard, and then it just went better and better. Almost cried at the end, very emotive and with an enormous message, that every bad love story end in tragic, so just don't force things to make them work out the way you want, because it won't probably be that way.

Alejandro González Iñárritu is one of the most important names in Hollywood today. Amores Perros made his super entry to the film field, with nomination to the Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars. Two friends are in a hurry, driving vigorously on the street with a wounded dog in their car. They are being chased by another car. This leads to a horrific accident. From this point, three stories are revealed with the people involved in this accident.Each story is better than the other. The title directly translates to "Loves Dogs". This is the direct connection with movie Love and Dog. The situation of each 3 stories are connected with the dogs with them, and it's all about love. A really good film that will fascinate you about the brilliance of making and story telling. A must watch. Highly recommended. #KiduMovie

My Rating : 8/10 Found it to be too negative in nature right from the beginning. Didn't interest me in the least but this is what reality is like : cold, brutal and unfair. Violent, aggressive drama with no sense of resolution to be found. You've gotta watch it, man!

I really liked this film. It gives us an intimate glimpse inside three different stories/lives co-existing but unconnected at the same time. The film is wonderfully shot and with great cinematography which really brings the lives of the people and the city into your front room. This film feels so natural to watch as if you are seeing real events unfold and the clever way in which the three stories interconnect at different points only goes to re-enforce that feeling. A lot of films like this get bogged down in trying to deliver some great life message but this film gets it spot on by just giving us enough to let our own minds and imaginations finish the story. If you are not a fan of foreign language films you should still give this a try as it's a great starting point to develop an interest in world cinema. The first thing you will notice is how great the acting is, with the performer never intruding on the role, like is currently happening in Hollywood films.

Of course I watched Pulp Fiction and when I first saw this movie, it was on TV on local station. Later bought DVD, and watched movie a couple of times and realized, in some way, that this film is even better than Pulp Fiction. It's more human than any US multi-plot-anachrono-psycho-thriller film that I ever watched. Acting is very intense, young Bernal and old Emilio especially, and the cohesion of the different-class stories is excellent. Also I must say that the tempo of a movie and soundtracks of the song are doing just in a right way. Comparing "Crush" to this masterpiece is like comparing Coldplay to Radiohead in rock music. Although I never saw a Mexican film before (only their moronic love-story series), I felt like I was right there in Mexico city, while watching. Brutal scenes for the first time in my life, make film more realistic, instead of making distance from the real life. Everybody is so edgy in this movie, but in a natural way. Great atmosphere, great film indeed.

It was just long and bloody, and I wouldn't care to see it again. All of the characters except for the mother of the two brothers seemed a bit selfish, and not much in the way of redemption emerged from any of the intertwined stories except perhaps in the one at the end. I would give the film an even lower rating if any of the animals were mistreated in the making of the movie; I hope none weren't.

Before renting this movie I read the box cover. The cover said it would be something like pulp fiction. With different plots mixed together it sounded like a good idea. The only problem is: This social drama is really very slow and has nothing to do at all with pulp fiction and its great characters or Tarantinos brilliant story telling. At about 48 minutes I realized my mind began traveling to more interesting things like getting another movie into the player more and more. The story isn't interesting at all and it is told in a boring way. The actors are ok but the characters they represent lack of interesting attributes and style. Not worth seeing. My Rating: 1/10
