Crash: Everyone should see this movie

Today I saw the movie "Crash" starring Sandra Bullock, Don Cheadle, and tons of other amazing actors and actresses. It was fantastic. I haven't seen a movie like this for a long time. It has a very strong and powerful message about racial intolerance and shows a really nasty side of life in Los Angeles. There are so many intense and thought-provoking moments in this film that really make you want to sit down and discuss it for hours after watching it.

It is very effective as it describes injustice and shows a hopeless scenario for many of the characters involved. In a way the movie also shows that not all is lost, and that when people are confronted with something terrible, they can learn and understand what kind of stupid things they do. Sometimes they are even smart enough to change their behaviour and improve their attitude, affecting the society around them.

This is such an amazing film and I think everyone should see this movie... here is a description I found online.
Challenging and thought-provoking, Lions Gate Films CRASH takes a provocative, unflinching look at the complexities of racial tolerance in contemporary America. Diving headlong into the diverse melting pot of post-9/11 Los Angeles, this compelling urban drama tracks the volatile intersections of a multi-ethnic cast of characters struggles to overcome their fears as they careen in and out of one another’s lives. In the gray area between black and white, victim and aggressor, there are no easy answers...

Funny, powerful, and always unpredictable, CRASH boldly reminds us of the importance of tolerance as it ventures beyond color lines...and uncovers the truth of our shared humanity.
This movie is definitely worth seeing!
