American cinema at its most powerful

Rating: 10/10 (9 October 2007)

what went on at the Oscars with this film finally blew open that set-up (people allowed to vote without bothering to see the competition, certain films being sent on DVD to voters by PR firms). Still, this is a milestone in American cinema and one that will be lauded long after Crash is forgotten. Quite simply the greatest film I have ever seen and the only film I've gone back to a cinema to see within days. It's a pity the IMDb ratings system doesn't take into account how those gay-baiting losers who give the film a 1 rating are dragging this film's score down. And this goes for other great films who attract the same petty-minded saboteurs. IMDb... can't you fix that? No more than a handful of films deserve a 1.
