Possibly the best movie of the year?

Rating: 10/10 (28 August 2005)

This movie is excellent and as the tag line on UK adverts says, the must see movie of the year. This normally puts me off, but we had a toss up to see, Crash or Charlie and the chocolate factory, I was so glad fate got us to see Crash.
The opening lines of Don Cheedle about crashing into each others lives is so true. I kinda compared it with Pulp Fiction, but this was more true to life. Racism can be confused with ignorance, ignorance can be confused for anger, anger can be confused with frustration and so on. Its deep and on the way home, my missus, who is also my carer, and I got into a debate into what the movie was really about. I think you could watch this movie ten times and come up with ten different conclusions! In short, go see this movie... again. I have never been to see the same movie at the cinema twice, but I may to see Crash again. Simply superb! I read a lot of people saying on this forum that Brendan fraser was poor, he was excellent. He is type cast as a funny hunk actor, in this movie he was mis-cast on purpose, or was he? For my money, he was excellent as an ill at ease DA, walking a tightrope. Sandra Bullock was a little under par but her outrage and pain was brilliantly acted. I think just about everyone who saw this movie and understood its underlying plot, could at least try to compare themselves to at least one of the characters and what emotion they were portraying. Mine was Sandra Bullock, angry for no reason and frustrated because of such. Myself, being disabled its so easy to get mad at the world, though ignorance, I felt this in Sandra's acting with the way she showed her interpretation of the script, as if life imitating art. I personally felt the same for all the main actors involved, my bet here this movie is good for at least 4 Oscars.
For my money, The must see movie of the year, is worth at least one look.. cant wait for the DVD release.
