Aye Andrew, and I agree it's Cuaron's masterpiece, even though Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN does push real close. There are some exquisitely beautiful (and eeerie set pieces) in this bleak and moody vision, which boasts extraordinary cinematography by Emmanuel Lubezki, and some innovative action sequences. It's an elegiac and strangely beautiful film, one of the best of the decade. “It just goes to prove that a pitch-perfect dystopian fable never loses its relevance.”
