crash - not really

Rating: 6/10 (15 October 2005)

Can't really understand why it's rated so highly by so many people. It's very competent but the plot is: this person is good oh no (s)he isn't.
Of course, there is the added subtlety of the sub-plot: this person is bad oh no (s)he isn't. Repeating the various combinations makes for an interesting 30 minutes but doesn't make for a spellbinding whole film. Even the increased "complexity" of "this person considers him/her self to be good/bad, it's not what it seems" idea might have added another 5 minutes before I got to the stage where I wanted something else to happen.
It seemed to be based on "Short Cuts" but with just the one single story repeated.
