"Crash" Indeed

Rating: 1/10 (6 January 2012)

The film was about absolutely nothing. It wasn't even about racism because what appeared on screen was nothing even close to reality. It wasn't a diversion to an interesting fantasy realm either. It was a ridiculous exploration of a faux monde, explored with the astuteness of a small child. How could this receive any award? The only explanation is that the reviewers saw the cast list. Not that the actors or acting is particularly good, but the big names kept this out of the trash bin... unjustly. Skip this film if you're thinking of watching it. Instead go for something that treats racism (or anything) intelligibly like Children of Men.
