2.0 out of 5 stars What?, March 27, 2006
By JB (Minnesota United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crash (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
I rented this movie before it won best picture and turned it off after 30 minutes because I thought is was a ridiculously preachy public service announcement that was ripping off a few dozen movies already made. After it won best picture, I questioned my rush to judgement and rented it again. Much to my dismay, my initial reaction to the flick was not in error. I spent the majority of the time in this move shaking my head in disbelief at occurrences that would never happen. If you are a movie watcher who does not like to be insulted by ridiclous coincidences, this is not your movie. Trust me.

2.0 out of 5 stars A hackneyed ABC After School Special, March 12, 2006
This review is from: Crash (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
I wanted to like this movie. I really did. I had heard good things about it from friends, but in the end, I realized I'd seen every plot line and technique in the movie done before and done much better. "Short Cuts" meets "Do the Right Thing" meets "House of Sand and Fog" meets "Magnolia".

Far from being touched, I was completely irritated that a couple of white guys (Haggis and Moresco) were preaching to me about racism with all the authenticity and subtlety of a hammer (apparently the one referred to in Haggis's acceptance speech).

I for one don't appreciate a director insulting my intelligence with hackneyed cliches, laughable stereotypes and morality tales with all the moral complexity of an ABC After School Special.

2.0 out of 5 stars I already saw this...when it was called MAGNOLIA, SHORT CUTS, GRAND CANYON..., March 10, 2006
This review is from: Crash (Widescreen Edition) (DVD)
CRASH...even the title smacks of obviousness.

Rarely have I seen a film handle the issue of racism so clumsily an didactically, and what stuns me even more is that people are actually buying into the ugly, facile stereotypes employed by the screenplay. Paul Haggis' attempt at creating a mosaic of interlocking vignettes fails on fronts, chiefly because the director has little understanding of how people interact. Instead of drawing out subtle communications between the multi-ethnic characters, he goes right for the jugular with laughably overwrought demonstrations of how blacks, whites, Hispanics and Asians are all oh-so mean to each other. I've seen Sesame Street episodes with more nuance (and better acting, too, but that's a whole different issue). CRASH panders to the mainstream audience with its reductive portrayal of race relations, and makes no apologies for its ludcrious plot contrivances and overly-tidy characterizations. The fact that members of the Academy thought this was the best film of 2005 is stunning and disgusting on just about every conceivable level. If you want to see a real film about racism in America, rent Spike Lee's DO THE RIGHT THING and avoid this vacant, worthless imitation.
