I do not understand the praise for this film. The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada has to be the most plodding, pretentious, poorly written, poorly cast, poorly directed films EVER! This film features illogical leaps all over the landscape, underdeveloped characters, weakly defined relationships, unclear motivations, leaden pacing and an air of self-importance that reeks as bad as the corpse. I suspect all you need is racist white people, a good hearted Mexican, harsh Texas-Mexico landscape and really bad dialog to pass-off a crappy film like this as some kind of deeply thoughtful art. This ranks with Kitano's Brother as one of the big mysteries of cinema... and wildly flawed, awful film that gets rave reviews. Go figure.
