I found myself laughing at alot of the movie. I know it wasn't supposed to be funny, but some of it seemed to be so over the top that I couldn't help but laugh. It also evoked anger and sadness so overall I give it 2 thumbs up!

CRASH

It's just black people demeaning other black people, using that word over and over. You ever hear white people callin' each other "honky" all the time? "Hey, honky, how's work?" "Not bad, cracker, we're diversifying!"

Anthony: Look around! You couldn't find a whiter, safer or better lit part of this city. But this white woman sees two black guys, who look like UCLA students, strolling down the sidewalk and her reaction is blind fear. I mean, look at us! Are we dressed like gangbangers? Do we look threatening? No. Fact, if anybody should be scared, it's us: the only two black faces surrounded by a sea of over-caffeinated white people, patrolled by the triggerhappy LAPD. So, why aren't we scared?
Peter: Because we have guns?
Anthony: You could be right.

My neighbor who could be described as very left-leaning thought the movie was the best he saw all year. I thought it was a good rent.
The movie is summed up in this quote,
"It's the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In LA, nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something."

Dumb movie, IMO, but my girlfriend loved it. I guess I've just never seen anything like the stuff portrayed in that movie and thought it did a poor job of driving the point home and a horrible job of making a decent movie. I feel dumber after watching it.

Personally, I thought it was way too over-the-top and a complete waste of $4. But then again, that's just one man's opinion. As you can see, there are plenty of people on here who think it's the best movie of the year.

The movie did have two great parts, though: Sandra Bullock and the old secretary off Spin City. You can't go wrong with those two.

If you want a good flick dealing with issues of racism, rent American History X. Now that's a great movie.
