whoever says this movie is "confusing" or "artsy" or stuff like "I don't like non-linear films, they confuse me" and so and so, is stupid!!
This movie is not confusing AT ALL!
Guillermo Arriaga (screenwriter) explained the main reason behind the non-linear narrative of his and Inarritu's trilogy. He says, "just think about how you tell somebody what happened in your day or any other anecdote and you'll find your narrative is as fragmented or maybe even more as my screenplays. That's why people understand them with no difficulty: it's the way people tell their own stories everyday, starting in the middle, going back to the ending, going back to the beginning and then telling something that has nothing to do with the main theme and then going back to the middle. It's how people talk..."
