A Brentwood housewife and her DA husband. A Persian store owner. Two police detectives who are also lovers. An African-American television director and his wife. A Mexican lock-smith. Two car-jackers. A rookie cop. A middle-aged Korean couple...
They all live in Los Angeles. And during the next 36 hours, they will all collide...
Review:
"Haggis writes with such directness and such a good ear for everyday speech that the characters seem real and plausible after only a few words. His cast is uniformly strong; the actors sidestep cliches and make their characters particular." Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Review:
"Crash is hyper-articulate and often breathtakingly intelligent and always brazenly alive. I think it's easily the strongest American film since Clint Eastwood's Mystic River, though it is not for the fainthearted." David Denby, New Yorker
Review:
"A frustrating movie: full of heart and devoid of life; crudely manipulative when it tries hardest to be subtle; and profoundly complacent in spite of its intention to unsettle and disturb." A.O. Scott, The New York Times
Review:
"The stunning, must-see drama Crash is proof that words have not lost the ability to shock in our anesthetized society. (Grade: A)"
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
Review:
"The characters and individual dramas remain interesting in a personal way, but the overall conception of Crash is hackneyed." San Francisco Chronicle
Review:
"This is the rare American film really about something, and almost all the performances are riveting. It asks tough questions, and lets its audience struggle with the answers." Stephen Hunter, Washington Post
Review:
"A grim, histrionic experiment in vehicular metaphor slaughter." Los Angeles Times

This movie leaves you looking stuned at your television set. You clearly see the changes and emotions the characters go through, and the ending is a bit of a shocker. Even though Matt Dillon's character is gritty, and just plain wrong, you can't help but admire his magnificent performance in this film - a far departure from his teenage days. I loved the cinematography, music and location - really added to the content of the movie.
