Product Details of Crash Unrated Edition Blu-ray Disc

Description

A stellar cast collides haphazardly in this insightfully written roundelay of racism, rage, and redemption which takes place over the course of one day in LA and involves a circus of cops, robbers, and civilians. A detective (Don Cheadle) with a heroin addict mother and criminal brother investigates the shooting of a black cop by a white one. Two hoodlums (Larenz Tate and Ludacris) jack the car of the District Attorney (Brendon Fraser) and his angry, racist wife (Sandra Bullock). Terrence Howard and Thandie Newton play an upper-class African American couple harassed by a racist cop (Matt Dillon). And the chaos continues, with other roles played by Tony Danza, Michael Pena, and Jennifer Esposito. A propulsive Mark Isham score keeps the disparate narrative threads electrified from the get-go; when they finally connect, the results are explosive and beautiful. Everything is tied together with tight editing and artistic shots of car headlights cutting through dense morning smog. Writer-director Paul Haggis' (writer of MILLION DOLLAR BABY) Los Angeles is a world of alienated people struggling to connect across vast barriers of language, class, and culture; that they manage to do so is testament to their depth as characters more than some trite message of brotherly love. There are no easy answers, but this film is tough, intelligent, and gutsy enough to find some anyway; and for that it's a winner.

Crash Unrated Edition Blu-ray Disc

Great review below. . .good film, but there are plot contrivances that are really, really, tough to swallow.  You want to root for the film to be good (and at times it is) but then you see it fall back into sentimental and safe territory.  It wants to be edgier than it is.  And then there's that creepy feeling of a self-important film- the big orchestra music at the nexus of all the...

Crash Unrated Edition Blu-ray Disc

I feel like Crash just missed being awesome.  The vision for the movie seems to be to try and present racial tension in more realistic ways.  As opposed to just good guys and bad guys, the good guys do bad things, and the bad guys do good things.There are some riveting scenes in this movie.  The scene in which racist cop Matt Dillon tries to pull the black woman out of a car wreck who had...

Crash Unrated Edition Blu-ray Disc

In high school most people in the United States have been taught that America is no longer a melting pot where different ethnicities are assimilated into one homogenous mix, but a tossed salad where people keep their differences from their ethnic backgrounds. The ethnic background includes aspects such as race, linguistics, religion, and culture. This knowledge frequently drifts into some unused...

Why

This movie in my opinion sucked and is not even worth your time. I mean its confusing there are like 5 different plots in the movie i mean what was the movies main goal? im assuming that its racism but i think the movie would have been a lot better if there was one plot.

Amazingly touching

Strengths: The way they expressed their love for each other in their family's even through all the racism that was happening. The way the racial events happened were very partonizing but very real.

Weakness: Lack of closure.

This movie was amazing and was very touching. I knew there was much racism still happening in the world. This movie made it extremely real to me. My adrenaline went wicked crazy throughout the whole movie and I could not sit still for the life of me. I know my opinion may mean nothing, but the group that I was with, acted the same way. I would definitely recommend this movie to someone who loves...

Crash Unrated Edition Blu-ray Disc

Crash has a lot going for it-excellent acting (excepting only Brandon 'Encino Man' Fraser), cinematography, dialogue and serious subject matter, among other things. Crash could have been a great movie, except for two flaws. First: most movies require suspension of disbelief at some point or other. Crash, however, goes beyond disbelief and into complete fantasy, gradually veering into a parallel...

Crash Unrated Edition Blu-ray Disc

I really enjoyed this movie its kinda of a new style for a drama movie well for me it is because i cant think of any other movies that deal with racism. This movie will remind you just how harsh racism is. Paul haggis(the director) did a good job showing how each race usually deals with stuff or life. This is probly the most powerful drama movie ive seen in a while.

Crash Unrated Edition Blu-ray Disc

I rented this movie, knowing that everyone thought it was amazing. I didn't exactly know what to expect from it. The story took awhile for me to understand. It was a little hard to follow at times, but there were some very touching scenes, and good emotion protrayed by the actors. Good all around cast, and decent plot. I'm not really focusing on the 84+ "F" words that were used throughout the...

Crash

A raw and unsettling morality piece on modern angst and urban disconnect, Crash examines the dangers of bigotry and xenophobia in the lives of interconnected Angelenos.
