Karma can be tough

Rating: 10/10 (19 September 2015)

In the movie Crash we see a great lineup with Sandra Bullock as Jean Cabot, Don Cheadle as Det. Waters, Matt Dillon as Off. Ryan, Brendan Fraser as Rick Cabot, Ludicrous as Anthony, and Terrance Howard as Cameron Thayer.
This is a very dark drama based on a very touchy topic in modern society.......Racism. In this film we see people from every walk of life and everyone of them is guilty of racism in some form or on some level. The scary thing of the situation is they are all so vocal about it and they don't care who hears. The only plus to this issue is that derogatory names are not used and that certainly helps the film.
Jean and Rick Cabot are attacked at gunpoint after which Jean becomes very vocal with her racism and she directs it at anyone who isn't white. Det, Waters refers to his partner and lover as a Mexican when in reality her heritage is Puerto Rican and El Salvadorean. Officer Ryan is racist towards blacks and doesn't care who knows it and he treats blacks as if they are criminals just because of there skin color. Anthony is racist towards white people and Cameron has an issue with the police because Officer Ryan molested his wife and made him watch.
This movie is dark and dealing with racism much as they did in the movie Dark Blue (2002) starring Kurt Russel. Everyone one of us is and can be guilty of racism given a certain situation.
The best part of this movie is that everyone who mistreats others in this film all have to learn a very valuable lesson. What goes around comes around. Fortunately some lessons can be learned the hard way without anything incredibly serious having to happen.
I don't really want to say much more due to concern of giving it away. Great film and I highly recommend it. Beware it is full of crass language from beginning to end.
