Festival 2000
"Winner of Cannes Critics Week Grand Prize, Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu’s debut is a kind of Latino “Pulp Fiction”, a dazzling, gritty, expertly constructed film about violent confrontations between fighting dogs, speeding cars, and men and women."

Inside Out
"This involving drama provides a highly visceral (indeed the director claims he didn't put his heart into the movie, rather "my entrails and a piece of my liver") insight into humanity (and dogs!)."
