Anybody see "Crash"
I saw it over the weekend and thought it was pretty good.

1. That was an amazing movie
Sometimes it played the issue out stronger than what would happen in real life, but it really did get the point across about racism in the United States

2. I thought it was amazing...
Especially the scene with the little girl. :cry: My heart was in my throat for a good part of the movie.

3. I loved the twist in it! (spoiler)
I loved the way the good guys sort of slipped and the bad guys had some sort of redemption.

Great movie. I would hope a couple of Oscar nods come from it.

:)

4. Yes, it was a very powerful movie. Hard to watch at times, but I
thought about it for a long time, afterwards.

Definitely one of the best flicks I've seen all year.

My two cents,
Shine

5. I saw it. To me it showed racism for what it is.
I was slightly put off though when Ludacris' character was saying how racist it was for Sandra Bullock's character to grab hold of her hubby when she saw them, but then it turned out that she had reason to be scared b/c they stole their car at gunpoint. And then the same character said never rob the black man and turned around to rob the rich black man. But it was a good movie. Very real!
