	Alternative film review - Was "Crash" the worst movie you've ever seen? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

MAN WHAT A PLOT!
THE ACTING WAS AIRTIGHT
THE PREMISE AND "PROVOCATIVE" THEMES SIMPLY SOLID
THE ENDING MADE ME WEEP UNCONTROLLABLY

CRASH

It wasn't the worse, but it was pretty far down there.

Wasn't there a scene involving penetration into wounds or something sick like that?

Where's the disgust smiley.

...yet the worst part is that this pile of worthlessness actually won critical acclaim, and was the hit at the French film festival "Cannes" a few years back

Notch up another one for the French!

Are there at least naked super models in the movie to keep me from falling asleep?

that's the only reason I watched in the first place. But it still didn't make up for that pile of trash.

Are all Canadians that perverted?

No. They're just all that CONTROVERSIAL and GROUNDBREAKING in the arts.

Bullsh*t. I hope to God the Liberals didn't fund it either, as is often the case

Oerdin, it has the amputee girl from The Sopranos and Beacher's boyfriend from OZ in it, giving each other rim jobs in the back of various rusted out automobile corpses. No supermodels here... if you want that, check out Deja Mort or Siberia, my favorite alt films!!!

never seen any of the director's other work, but from what i've heard of him, he goes in the same pile as lynch: not worth my time.

I am a big fan of David Cronenberg, and I though this was a great flick. One of his best. I also like J.G. Ballard who wrote the book it is based upon.

A little unsettling at times, but a very powerful look at the obsession with risk and violent thrills people take for their pleasure nowadays.

Did you see the R or uncut edition of the movie?

I'm a pretty big Croenenberg fan, but this one just didn't do it for me (except, of course, for the lesbian scene between Holly Hunter and Rosanna Arquette ). I didn't like eXistenZ, either; neither get even close to his work in The Fly, Naked Lunch, or especially Dead Ringers.

Yeah Crash was pretty bs.

Nothing could be worse than the Adventures of Buckaroo banzai in the fifth dimension...

BAH! Philestine. Buckaroo Banzai is one of the great classic films of all time.

Crash was bad, but nowhere near the complete waste of my time that Stargate was.

Crash isn't all bad. Some of the cinematography is nice - especially in the car wash scene. But generally speaking it's not a very good film.

that was it, it was the lesbian scene that I heard about that got me to rent it. I heard it was pretty graphic. I certainly wasn't renting the film for it's "story"

Maybe if there was some sort of story it wouldn't have been so bad.

	Suffering from ads?

Why would you rent this film from the video store just to see the sex scenes? If all you want is to see a porn movie then rent a porn movie. Sure, Crash is explicit, but if you're desperate to see two women getting it on then you can easily rent movies where they do nothing else for 90 minutes.

I don't like lesbian porn.

And actresses are almost always better looking that porn stars.

I watched Bound for the same reason. In fact I was kind of confusing bound and this movie for some reason. The story in bound was at least better than this one, and it had 2 fairly hot chicks in it.

Crash has Holly Hunter, Rosanna Arquette and Deborah Unger, all hot (okay, Rosanna has looked better). The sex in this movie isn't really supposed to turn you on, because the people in the movie have gotten so saturated with sexual pleasure they need to turn to something else to get their kicks.
