Crash (I) (2004)
9/10
Interesting flick
8 March 2006
Holds ones attention and draws you in....... Doesn't disappoint.

You'll find yourself thinking about this one for a long while and wanting to discuss it with a friend. The characters are just flushed out enough so that you wish you could have known them better.

Would I have voted for this movie to win an Oscar? Probably not, but it's well worth the view. I truly enjoy a movie that keeps me interested enough to not want to leave for even a popcorn and Coke.

The musical score is compelling and makes me want the entire soundtrack. Truly engrossing.

Reminded me in several ways of "21 Grams".

See it!

Wow! Sooooooooo overlooked. A mini-masterpiece

I've watched Robin Williams/Jeff Bridges in this "fairytale" more times than I count. Finally bought it. You have to watch it at least twice , in my opinion,because the first time all I could do was try to let it "settle in".

I love movies that hit me broadsided and then blind me! I keep trying to watch it with my daughter, who only likes love stories, but if I can keep her still long enough she'll find out that this IS a love story, of the most incredible kind. A love story for all mankind.

I hate to gush, but if it's ever called for, it's called for here.

The first time I saw it, I was soooooooo impressed with Mercedes Rhuel's performance and actually said to my friend in the theatre, "That woman's gonna get nominated for the Oscar for this performance", which of course she won for her performance. So, I'm not so unsophisticated after all.
