DVD Reviews of Crash (Full Screen Edition)

DVD Review: Good Movie Bad Bluray
Summary: 1 Stars

This is a warning, dont buy this movie not for the plot itself, just for the bad bad quality of the bluray picture, I cant believe they even bother to clean the grains in the movie, is the worst bluray movie i've ever seen, nevertheless this is one of my favorite movies of all the time

DVD Review: "Crash" Lands With a Thud
Summary: 1 Stars

White, liberal guilt at its worse. Wanna see a more realistic movie about Los Angeles and laugh while you're doing? Check out the comedy "L.A. Proper" on Amazon Video on Demand.

L.A. Proper is a comedy about a multi-ethnic group of friends looking for love, sex, work and happiness during the long days and short nights of Los Angeles.

DVD Review: ridiculous premise but I enjoyed it anyway
Summary: 3 Stars

Multicultural America rife with animosity, conflict between incompatible cultures and prejudice. Half true stereotypes that are sometimes confirmed and sometimes overturned in surprising ways. Acts of violence that through luck hurt no one and acts of mercy that end in violence due to fear and misunderstanding. As Rodney King said "Why can't we all get along?" How boring!

The acting is good, the directing is good, the editing is good. An enjoyable movie even if the premise is idiotic and irritating. The way the film is put together reminds me of Cela's La Colmena.

DVD Review: GREAT MOVIE!
Summary: 5 Stars

This was a great 5 star movie dealing with people and their mistakes and how they learned from them. the movie had a great cast, i had seen the movie before but i just rented it again and now i purchased it, it is a must own. it deals with many issues like social injustice and frankly we can all learn from this movie.

DVD Review: CRASHing bore
Summary: 1 Stars

Q: What could be more painfully dull than sitting through this movie? A:Sitting through it TWICE--the second time as part of a class on multiculturalism.

A trait shared by all substandard-to-mediocre movies is predictability, and this movie is about 95% predictable. That's a lazy way to make a film, as well as an insult to the audience's intelligence.

After the first few scenes, you know exactly how the movie will evolve. There are no surprises. The characters are wooden and one-dimensional. Good actors were wasted in this movie, which is preachy and moralistic while having nothing important to say.

Amazingly, this has become a must-see in classes having to do with "issues" such as racism. I suppose there are people out there who found the movie thought-provoking and interesting, but these are individuals who feel more comfortable being told what to think rather than use critical-thinking skills to interpret more nuanced works.

If you really feel compelled to rent this movie, feel free to turn it off after the first five minutes: you'll be able to guess the rest.

Description of Crash (Full Screen Edition)

They all live in Los Angeles. And in the next 36 hours, they will collide.
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
