One of the most touching and real commentaries on how the real world oftentimes perceives people to be or how they can immediately be placed into stereotypes. This film not only shows how often society places people in stereotypes by how the actors handle each other, but also does with within your own mind. I often times found myself assuming a character would turn out one way or the other based on their looks when in the end my assumptions just left me sitting there looking like a fool. In the end, it's just a wonderfully acted masterpiece by a dream team cast.
A really good racially driven movie. Stereotypes are shit people.
This is a film of collisions that touches on vehicles, personalities, attitudes, and stereotypes. Crash extends its cross-examination of racial attitudes and stereotypes across a sprawling canvas of intersecting storylines in the lives of a score of characters across a day and a half in LA.
The characters clearly embody recognizable types — and then, without in any way transcending or deconstructing that label, they show us another side that we associate with a completely different label. I know I found myself associating with characters throughout.
