Product Description
The lives of a group of Los Angeles residents interconnect as a result of often heated and racist encounters.
Amazon.com
Movie studios, by and large, avoid controversial subjects like race the way you might avoid a hive of angry bees. So it's remarkable that Crash even got made; that it's a rich, intelligent, and moving exploration of the interlocking lives of a dozen Los Angeles residents--black, white, latino, Asian, and Persian--is downright amazing. A politically nervous district attorney (Brendan Fraser) and his high-strung wife (Sandra Bullock, biting into a welcome change of pace from Miss Congeniality) get car-jacked by an oddly sociological pair of young black men (Larenz Tate and Chris "Ludacris" Bridges); a rich black T.V. director (Terrence Howard) and his wife (Thandie Newton) get pulled over by a white racist cop (Matt Dillon) and his reluctant partner (Ryan Phillipe); a detective (Don Cheadle) and his Latina partner and lover (Jennifer Esposito) investigate a white cop who shot a black cop--these are only three of the interlocking stories that reach up and down class lines. Writer/director Paul Haggis (who wrote the screenplay for Million Dollar Baby) spins every character in unpredictable directions, refusing to let anyone sink into a stereotype. The cast--ranging from the famous names above to lesser-known but just as capable actors like Michael Pena (Buffalo Soldiers) and Loretta Devine (Woman Thou Art Loosed)--meets the strong script head-on, delivering galvanizing performances in short vignettes, brief glimpses that build with gut-wrenching force. This sort of multi-character mosaic is hard to pull off; Crash rivals such classics as Nashville and Short Cuts. A knockout. --Bret Fetzer Stills from Crash (click for larger image)

This is a complete waste of time and the worst peice of politically correct propaganda garbage you will ever see. If this has any semblance of reality to life in L.A. It's no wonder California is Bankrupt. If you can get through 10 minutes of this film you deserve a medal of some kind, or a Labotomy. I gave it 5 Stars but it deserves a less than zero.

this movie is moving in many kind of ways. it just shows you how interconnected we to each other by a simple or a deliberate act. the underlying undertow of racism i felt were handled very well in the storyline. i would reccomend this movie to anyone to watch. i am glad i purchased it instead of renting it because the second time you watch it you really connect all the people in the storyline.i guess the old saying (what goes around comes around) is true.

I am sure the movie description written for the product is better than anything I could ever write, so I will just leave it as this is a good movie that I got a great deal on the Blu-Ray.
