Crash Review

http://dustinputman.com/reviews/c/05_crash.htm

I decided to use this review of Crash, due to its "middle ground" nature. Rather then taking such a strong and opposing view as many reviews do, Dustin Putman delivers his review as one that recognizes Crash's faults yet still agrees it is an incredible film. Putman's opening paragraph states how the Directors edgy and candid shots creates a raw atmosphere, very appropriate for the film.
The review talks about all aspects of the film, from the acting, to the choice of actors, talking about whether it was a right choice or not. Putman goes on to say that using such high prolific actors didn't take any of the meaning away from the film itself, and every single one of the actors chosen gave a superb performance. He mentions Sandra Bullock first, declaring her performance a complete turn around from those we have previously seen her in and know her for. Her gritty performance of a woman who only starts to become racist after two black men (played by rapper Ludacris and Larenz Tate) hijack her car is miles apart from her performance in Miss Congeniality.
Putman finishes his review by declaring Crash to be "An unforgettable series of snapshots into a modern world that still breeds unavoidable prejudices toward anyone different from ourselves" which i think creates the perfect image of the film.
