Anyone see this? WONDERFUL movie! Go rent it!

I want to!! I've been dying to see this movie but just haven't gotten around to it. Next weekend, I might be seeing this. I heard it's really great.

It's pretty intense,the movie makes you step back and take a look at things differently....Hope you like it! :D

its a shame it got an NC-17 rating in the states. It would've been a blockbuster.

 

Too many well-known actors though. Sandra Bullock and Brenda Fraser just plain suck in it.

Best movie of the year!

Sandra Bullock and Brenda Fraser just plain suck in it.

 

Really? I don't know...all i've heard is good things about Sandra Bullock in this movie.

I saw this movie last night... mega!!!

 

I highly recommend this movie to everyone especially for those who claim they aren't prejudice or racist... watch it..!! :coughmrcool01cough:: seriously.. it goes to show you how we all have certain prejudices in our lives and we're so ignorant.. we don't even see it.

 

I am interested in seeing how many of you who have seen the movie.... think which nationality was protrayed as the most 'honest'.... as in, not doing much wrong. I think it was interesting how every character in this movie inter-connected in some way.. and how they all had flaws....

 

oh how I cried in this movie! Excellent film.. and Sandra Bullock wasn't too bad... she was just a bitch, thats all :lol:

BEST MOVIE OF THE YEAR...

And one of the best movies I've seen ever.... The emotional force of this movie is amazing, the dialogue is so sharp and the performances are incredible, Matt Dillon deserves an Oscar for this one.....

 

I left the the movies crying, it affect so much because this movie is so amazing.

 

I don't think nationalities were portrayed good or bad or "honest", I think is about the people and not the race. But it enphazises in all of the mistakes that we make when we crash with all these different cultures, all the stereotypes that are so wrong and we never even realize it.

well thats what I mean.. the stereotypes.. well not exactly.

 

 

Well, lets take the Persian guy.. (whom lets be honest... in the beginning I thought he was Arab as well.. ) he was acussed of being Arab in the beginning by that stupid gunshop owner.. only to later find out... most of us probably assumed the same.... since its never mentioned again until his shop gets vandalized.... (sterotyping #1) and we all feel like.. 'damn.. I thouht he was arab too :embarrased: ) Then the locksmith guy... he's dressed like a 'chicano' gangbanger... (supposedly) I just saw him with work pants and a tee.. but again.. some 'gangeros' do wear that attire... Sandra Bullock 'prejudges' him and says he's a gangster.. they'll sell the keys.. etc. etc... he then makes her feel stupid by leaving both sets of keys on the counter and just gives her a look.... (sterotype #2) he was an honest man making a living... until he goes home and then later gets a beep in the middle of the night.. (I honestly thought it might be some 'friends' calling him to go 'do something'.. (again prejudging) and instead it was his job.. doh!

 

This is what I mean about being protrayed 'honestly'.... I think that everyone in the movie had faults.. guilty of their own stereotypes and predjudice.... but I am wondering... if because I am a latina woman... is that why I saw the latino guy do no 'real wrong'??? Everyone learned their lesson in the end... they did a wrong and rectified in the end... but I guess I am just curious to see if anyone else saw (perhaps) their own 'nationality or race' protrayed the way I saw mine...

 

did that make sense??

I really liked that movie. Ludacris was excellent in it. I liked the story of the locksmith with the daughter and everything the most.

ludacris was such a hypocrite in the movie. :chinese:

I saw it a while ago, fantastic movie.

Yea but, what did Brendan Frasier learn in the movie at all? It seemed like he was there as window dressing. And Sandra Bullock learned to not be a bitch by falling down stairs? come on...

I saw this movie on Saturday and I thought it was absolutely brilliant. All of the stories was amazingly developed and connected at the end. Loved it (I haven't seen Brokeback Mountain yet so I can say if it was unfair for it to go home without the Best Picture Academy Award, but Crash sure deserved it)

I merged your post with the exisiting thread... :)

 

 

its indeed a great movie... one everyone should watch.

I've not got round to buying it yet.

oops, I made a thread just like this one. I used the search button and nothing came up...

 

I absolutely loved this movie, every single one of the stories were amazing. Incredible. I haven't seen brokeback mountain yet so I can't quite say if it was unfair for it not to go home with the academy award, but Crash sure deserved it
