No one can escape from their true self

Rating: 8/10 (29 January 2015)

We are who we are. But every single one of us has a "hidden side" and an "apparent side" which is the one that we show in public. But which one of these sides is the true representation of what makes us, or is us, and which one is healthier "to use" in order to be kept sane?
There are many people that they choose the easy way in life, or this is what they think they do. They choose to hide their true self because the fear of being isolated or being rejected is rooted inside them. They are trapped in an endless conflict with their own self. A destructive, demeaning path that can lead to insanity. These people want to show a fake, clay facade, a supposed to be superiority and class. That fake, very popular persona every one may cherish and love. So fake it is, what they represent, that they cannot even look them selves at a mirror...Until of course they realize what is good for them and what the others are eagerly expecting to see from them. Then they feel the strength inside them stored and awaiting...
Watching this movie was entertaining. I really enjoyed Michael Keaton and Edward Norton proving their acting experience yet once more, and loved the intensity of the music wonderfully bound to the scenes it was heard.
In the end I wasn't truly stunned, I wasn't truly found this a great work of art. But to be honest the awkwardness of the story and that brush stroke of Alejandro González Iñárritu were enough for me.
