Bardo is a film that will age better overtime. Some people love this film, some people don’t understand this film 🤷♂️ Overtime, this film could be unanimously viewed as a cinematic masterpiece.
To be honest, the ending didn't need to be explained to make sense of the rest of the movie. BUT!. Iñarritu always manages to exceed my expectations at the end of the day. When you've done the movies that he's already done, it's really nice to be able to appreciate the fact that he's not done exploring the limits of his ability and he has no interest in following the Hollywood narratives either. More power to him!
Bardo es un perfecto ejemplo del efecto "apantalla tarugos". Cuando una mamarrachada está bien hecha causa ese efecto. La forma se roba la atención del público superficial y pretensioso. Crea la ilusión de estar viendo algo complejo y profundo cuando de profundo no hay nada. Siempre defendida con un discurso pseudo académico igualmente vacío.
