Everyone should see Crash

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2005)

Before I went to see this movie my friend gave me a warning. "Don't blink, cause you might miss something." I didn't need the it, my eyes were glued to the screen the whole time. It is one of the ten best films I have ever seen. There are a few funny/ironic moments and some moments when make you let out this sigh of relief and it occurs to you that you have been holding your breath for most of the scene. Crash has brilliantly interwoven the lives of the characters into each other so amazingly well it's hard not to notice some degree of similarity in your own lives. Through the entire movie you are taken on an emotional roller coaster, where characters become than they seem to be and they make you start to think a bout some of the people you encounter in everyday life. I walked out of Crash wanting a few minutes to process what I had just witnessed. After as I talked about the movie with my friend I could feel that raw emotions I felt as I sat in the theater. Especially discussing some of the more dramatic encounters the characters had. As soon as this movie comes out on DVD I'm buying it.
