Amores perros is a Mexican crime thriller dark comedy-drama film directed by Alejandro González Iñárritu and written by Guillermo Arriaga. Amores perros is the first installment of the "Trilogy of Death", succeeded by 21 Grams and Babel.

Plot
The film is constructed from three distinct stories linked by a car accident that brings the characters briefly together. The stories centre on a teenager in the slums who gets involved in dogfighting; a model who seriously injures her leg; and a mysterious hitman. The stories are linked in various ways, including the presence of dogs in each of them.

Why It Rocks

 * 1. The premise of three stories being linked to a single car accident is interesting.
 * 2. The opening scene throws you into the action as it opens in media res to the car accident.
 * 3. Excellent acting.
 * 4. It started the careers of Gael García Bernal and Alejandro González Iñárritu.

Bad Qualities

 * 1. The third story isn't as entertaining as the first two.
 * 2. Depending on your point of view, the film can have slow pacing at some points.
