Synopsis

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's latest melodrama stars Javier Bardem and Maricel Alvarez in a surprisingly linear redemption tale set in the slums of Barcelona. Bardem plays a likable bad guy with his hand in a few illegal rackets, and his eyes on his unpredictable ex-wife (Alvarez) and their two children. When he learns he has terminal cancer, he goes about getting his affairs in order for his children's sake, but the task takes him on a hellish journey that ends in a grandiose finale. Biutiful wasn't adored by critics, but Havier Bardem's strong lead and Alvarez's supporting performance received praise across the board. In Spanish and English with English subtitles.

Biuttiful is an emotional film with Bardem giving a deep performance of a person torn apart by pain and guilt. This movies tackles family breakdown, prostitution, illegal immigration, deportation, pain and death. Although it is grim, it is a wonderful film that shows the extremely difficult and dangerous lives people live.
