THE ROLE In Alejandro González Iñárritu's latest harrowing drama, which follows several interweaving stories, Pitt is Richard, a tourist in Morocco who quickly turns into an ugly American when his travel companion/wife (Cate Blanchett) is involved in a terrible accident.
WHAT EW SAID Lisa Schwarzbaum: ''My compassion [for the characters] is undone by frustration, convinced as I am that no ensuing snafu would have been quite so catastrophic had Brad Pitt, as an apoplectic American abroad, not been asked to bellow and bully with such unsophisticated ignorance... Is this seemingly sophisticated, affluent, attractive man not the ugliest gringo since...the ugly gringos in The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada?''
