Movie: "Crash"


Bottom Line:
This is a bold film that captures racism and prejudice in modern society. It has been called "intense" by some people, and it has won an Oscar for Best Picture of 2005.

A Synopsis: Set in L.A., this picture has several storylines that weave themselves together by the end. Whether its white on black, Persian on Hispanic, black on Asian... this film captures racism and prejudice on many levels, and in many ways: the police, the performing arts, the judicial system, etc. As the tagline states: "You think you know who you are. You have no idea." This drama lasts for 113 min (1 hr 53 min). If you do not want to be trapped in your social bubble forever, this movie is for you. [For another review of the movie, and of a few others, see my fellow comrade in reviews at The Fishian Chronicles.]

(Rated for language, sexual content, and some violence.)



Critique Feedback Average (2 votes): 4.5 / 5.0

Comments:
Thank you for your support, I appreciate it : ) In planning for future "dissentions" from my reviews, I have added (obstinately) essentially a "user feedback review" as seen at the bottom of the post. (That way, those who disagree can have "their say" seen.)

In considering you think it is 5 stars, and the given 4 stars, that's two votes. Thus, the "critique feedback average" is 4.5 / 5.0...

And no, you can't vote more than once... ; )
