The film's generic, meaningless title is a sign of the dullness to come.
360 is a classic example of how you can't always judge a movie by its credits.
Though the cinematography looks sleek, with shots through windows and in mirrors, split screens and city lights that blur and sharpen, the stories equate to a tangled mess.
Much like its own characters, it dithers too much - and it dares too little.
'360' is classy but utterly amorphous, and that seemingly benign title gives far too much away.
Like the fork that usually comes with your airplane meal, 360 is plastic.
Fizzles out with a terrible pat ending.
It often feels forced and inauthentic. Perhaps it's a weakness of the direction, but ultimately the film fails to fire up all its many cylinders
Circular exploration of sex, love and relationships, in which interconnected characters reveal how actions, reactions and consequences impact on us all
One of those movies with a plot that is intricately constructed of a bunch of seemingly unrelated parts that end up fitting together improbably, but very nicely at the end.
It just goes to show that, even with so much talent involved behind and in front of the camera, some material just won't work.
Globe-trotting drama explores sex, grief, betrayal.
A carousel that gets caught up in its own whirlwind and doesn't utilize or know how to appreciate its talent properly.
As the action moves from Vienna to Paris to London to Denver to Phoenix and then back again, the vignettes blur into one another ...
Mereilles stretches some of his links to beyond tenuous.
According to 360 the world is united in broken dreams and wounded hearts. It's too bad that playing R.E.M.'s "Everybody Hurts" on a two-hour loop could have expressed the sentiment more effectively.
Despite a few good moments, it's depressing, obnoxious, and condescending. To use a favorite critics' word, it's "leaden"... it just refuses to move.
It's a dull world after all.
A starry cast and a knowing air can't add depth to Peter Morgan's tale of blackmail, infidelity and dodgy deals.
A waste of talent and a tired enterprise, with its brief snippets of compelling content undone by the overarching blandness.
An utterly superficial movie ineffectively posing as a work of significance. Yes, "grandiosely superficial" will do quite nicely.
Burdened with a dawdling pace and a contrived storyline (and the moral vacuum said storyline creates), 360 falls short on pretty much every level.
Morgan just skims the surface of most of the stories, leaving you disappointed and frustrated when something with potential goes unfulfilled.
[A] subtle and striking globehopping ensemble drama of human interactions shaped by sex and love, honesty and deception, allure and retreat...

Good movie!!! 360 is a beautifully made film that oozes class and tells us something about where we are at as human beings in the 21st century. The film makers and actors should be applauded for this huge achievement. The Cast are made up of fine actors from around the world and headed by sympathetic and unshowy performances from Anthony Hopkins, Rachel Weisz and Jude Law. Ensemble films like this don't always work, but in the hands of a master director such as Meirelles, Peter Morgan's script comes to life in a vivid and evocative way. I love the way the story progresses from one pair of characters to the next and the cinematography is superb. Verticals and horizontals are crisply defined and move into split-screen that unites the stories. 360 is a film with real heart and real purpose made by real talent.
Screenwriter Peter Morgan and director Fernando Meirelles' 360 combines a modern and dynamic roundelay of stories into one, linking characters from different cities and countries in a vivid, suspenseful and deeply moving tale of love in the 21st century. Starting in Vienna, the film beautifully weaves through Paris, London, Bratislava, Rio, Denver and Phoenix into a single, mesmerizing narrative.
