I think they have so many issues in this one movie and its strikes home for different people in different ways. It all comes down to giving everyone the same chance you would want regaurdless of their past we as a nation need to look pass certain things.-Willie Massey
ReplyDeleteI fell like not everybody have issues in this movie, but most of the people do. Most of the black and white people in the movie try and get along. But u have some white people in the movie who is scared of black.Now days u still have the same thing black and white not getting along together
ReplyDeleteThe individuals in this movie all have issues but not major as others. In this age & time most black and white people get along great. In the movie it seems like everyone are enemies.
ReplyDeleteI feel that the first review gives does the best at thus movie. My view and opinion is that everyone has a fear no matter your race or skin color. And everyone has a story to tell. Crash brought a mixture of tears, hate and joy all at the same. What I love the most about this movie is how instead of working against each other they all began to come together in the end with one purpose which is to face there. -Jessica Cole
ReplyDeleteI think that the first review did the best job of interpreting the film. I think the others were just thinking about it racially and not thinking about society as a whole. No one is perfect. Everyone has good and bad in them, and race does not tell how a person is.

ReplyDeleteI feel that the first review is the best one. The other reviwers short change the true meaning of the movie,they dont show enough detail and what it seems like they do is just takes parts of the movie and try to retail the story without giving it a meaning. The first reviewer gave more detail and seemed to have put more thought into what they had to say about the movie. Jasmyne Williams

ReplyDeleteI think nymag.com/nymetro/movies/reviews/11872/ did the best review. They did a good job of explaining the movie in terms that i could relate to.

"It is a sense of touch so, when we mist that touch so much that we crash into each other just to feel that touch ",By the black inspector, "OK Dade I will protect you " by the little girl (the door repairer's child ." This is blind fear"by LD Chris(immediately before the white woman looked at the in the car-jacking scene ).They all live in a world they didn't choose to be,surrounded by fear but deep in them we want to feel that touch of being together,but only when we ma the first bold step toward one another that we come to undestand even ourselves ,it is then we can really feel that sence of touch that we really missed. I think each of the word the characters in this movie exposes the diffrent weakness in each of this races and poeple and tries to use each of this feeling to bring out a resolution,but making it clear that it only when we our self open up that the solution can finaly come,this may be relative or a global solution ,but all depens on us as individuals,races,government respectively.
ReplyDeleteI hate this movie. I feel like whatever point they're trying to make is obscured by their need to be extreme. It's possible to tell a good story about a sensitive issue while using some subtlety. Also, all the different storylines were kind of muddled. I think it would have been better if they didn't force the connection among those people.
