Crash: A Movie Review

What I knew about the flick, "Crash," before I saw it by accident tonight on IFC:

  • It featured Matt Dillon (is Matt dumb? Probably. Bangable? Definitely. Maybe. Hello, Little Darlings!)
  • There are some car crashes (educated guess)
  • Focuses on racial issues (but my Korean-American friend didn't feel that Asians were well represented.)

What I Saw:

  • A lot of sex with penises in car accidents AND outside car accidents with vaginas and scars which look like vaginas in and outside car accidents.

ANNE Gives This Movie a: C for Confusing.

The book was freakier than the movie if you can imagine that!

Did you watch Crash or Crash?

You watched the James Spader/Holly Hunter "Crash", not the Matt Dillon "Crash".

The former featured sickos who use "car crashes" to stimulate their sexual lives. The latter is a film about personal and racial relations told from different points of views by inter-related characters whose lives "crash" into the other characgters lives.

Big difference.

Yeah, you watched the James Spader one. Watch the Matt Dillon/Sandra Bullock one. It's much better.
