Have you ever seen a movie that can *actually* move you?

Rating: 10/10 (18 March 2006)

I skipped out on Crash all throughout 2005. I saw a trailer or two, picked up a opinion from a few friends, and conveniently moved it to the back of my mind: before I had saw it, I already had decided that I would not like "Crash". Last week I caved in. After reading praise after praise (and, conversely, bashing after bashing), I decided that I must decide if "Crash" was for me. During the opening credits and the first couple scenes, I sat there, in front of my television, almost waiting to be impressed. I scoffed at the extremely unrealistic coincidences, laughed at the petty jokes and was almost disappointed in that my initial opinion, that I would not like "Crash", had come true. By the end of the movie, I was in utter shock. Have you ever seen a movie that can *actually* move you? When was the last time You cried during a movie? When had you ever found a film that stopped your life, and said, "wait a second, they're right. They're right. We need to change"? "Crash" is a knockout, a thriller that will aim right for your heart. I was emotionally ripped apart by "Crash", it is a brilliant tapestry of film making and an outstanding example of Movies at their Finest. Forget people who haven't seen the movie and are already bashing it; forget those who call it "corny", "fake", and an "atrocity". Go see "Crash". Develop your own opinion of the movie. You may learn something.
