Review about the movie Crash

Rating: Null/10 (14 March 2007)

The movie Crash shows in different stories about Indians, Mexicans and also Blacks the various kinds of racism not just minorities all over the world are contending with. In this film also the Blacks condemn the Whites. Sometimes it seems Paul Haggisdidn't know how to combine the various story lines and so the links seem a little bit artificial. Nevertheless the movie conveys the feelings of the characters in a very good way. So everyone is able to understand the motives the Iranian shopkeeper has and that he wants to revenge on the person who caused his misfortune. Such moments, when somebody is thinking about his life(and the way it goes), are underlined by emotional music. This music is also meant to inspire the viewers to think about similar situations in their lives and about the way they reacted. Another important aspect 'Crash' pays attention to is that just a single moment is enough to change your whole life and your personality. Good people become evil and vice versa. All in all Ipersonally like the movie 'Crash', especially its critics of society and the distance between people.
