Crash (DVD)
It is truly amazing how I missed a film with so much grit and intelligence, and I’m just happy to have finally picked it up.
Crash is everything you want in a film. Its gritty, provocative, and controversial and hits all your senses like a roaring semi truck. Fear, hatred, prejudice, anger, love, guilt, and every other emotion felt by humanity is seemlessly touched in this film.
Crash carries more weight than most other film’s I’ve watched. The message behind the movie is so incredibly powerful that it cannot be ignored. The ignorance and bigotry of today’s society insinuates itself into our daily lives without any of us really knowing it. Sometimes it takes a controversial film such as this, to open up the eyes of everyone who seems oblivious to their surroundings and its effects on its people.
As for the film itself, you really couldn’t ask for a better cast. I really can’t pinpoint anyone in particular who did not do justice to this film. Everyone from Matt Dillon to Sandra Bullock did an excellent job portraying their character.
This movie is a must see for everyone. It truly touches the reality which is today’s society.

I love this movie. It chronicles the prejudices people of people because we are all different and at the same time illustrates that we can work together and hope for the better society :)

I have not yet seen this movie but I really wanted to. It sounded really interesting the previews - like it had some potential unlike other movies lately. Cloverfield was absolutely horrible - the movie had no point whatsoever in my opinion.
I still haven’t seen the movie, but the score by Mark Isham is just amazing. I can just imagine how good the movie is. It’s on my to-watch list :)

Agreed. This one really got to me. There was a lot of hype, which usually scares me away, but this one deserved all the accolades it got.

man, you really did beat me to one! haha. I still don’t know how I missed this gem.
I enjoyed yesterday. The comeback was surreal. I was the only one in my entire workplace that was for the giants. It was nice and quiet when the game finally ended and I was the one left smiling.
Yes! I beat you to a movie! Wow, I can’t believe it! hehehe It was available on satellite (once upon a time when I had it) and I reviewed it immediately.
