Review:
The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada
Country: USA
Year: 2005
Genres: Drama, Cowboy, South
Title [2**]
Why is this title so long.. why not just "The Three Burials"? It does make sense with the movie but still...
Story [3***]
The story is alright, it isn't terribly interesting. More about how the characters treat each other and get along than anything else.
Cinematography [4****]
Although there are a lot of things that weren't perfect in the movie, this is one area that is done very well. It makes itself an art movie and the way it is presented is very nice.
Overall [4****]
For what it's trying to do, The Three Burials is successful. It's an alright watch and I would recommend a viewing to anyone who's not afraid of a little confusion. For the normal viewer this may be a turn off.
