Holy fuck it's so good. Hard to watch at times but good. Watching it right now. So far it's a really nuanced and deep examination of stereotypes and racism and there's a lot of twists and turns you won't see coming.

But I'm neither an SJW nor an alt-righter. Should I still watch it?

What a twist .

The twist is that nothing is as simple as it seems. Everyone in the movie had a reason for having their flawed beliefs - it's all a vicious cycle where an incorrect belief about someone gets propagated until it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy of sorts. And it just ends up hurting everyone involved.

How about we, y'know, stop seeing people as different based on skin colour?

We breathe the same air and all die anyway so it's not like any of this matters. Like, why don't we do something that helps everyone?

Like, free bubblegum and coupons to Bennigans for everyone

7.8 on IMDB which is a great score, a perfect score from Roger Ebert, 75% critics and 88% audience on Rottentomatoes.

Yet salty CEmen are saying it's garbage lmfao

We must have watched something different then.

I saw an odd but good film called Crash that was about car crashes, fetishism and had an hauntingly good musical score.

Did you just cite IMDb and Roger Ebert to defend the quality of a movie? lol.

Pretty sure the director even said it didn't deserve its Oscar.

I mean I dunno, I tend to like movies with a good IMDB and Roger Eber score. Another example is The Last Samurai. One of my favorite movies.

well based on the comments I saw, people are mad that it won considering what it was up against during the awards. I wasn't aware of these film awards or any of that back then so I didn't watch the film with that knowledge in mind. I just watched it for its own sake. I thought it was a great movie.

In retrospect it's bewildering that the film beat out Brokeback Mountain, Capote, and Munich for best picture. Haven't seen Good Night and Good Luck.

Crash was the epitome of Oscar bait, and not particularly good Oscar bait at that. But I suppose it did a good job of exposing everyone's racial bias against the effectiveness of magical invisible bulletproof cloaks.

So based on what I'm hearing, people give it a hard time because it won an award when other stronger contenders were up to win that ward. >____>

That's a stupid reason to think a movie is garbage though, and I'm glad I got to watch it before I even knew any of the Awards drama.

LMFAO at people putting any stock into these award shows.

I'm not a fan of their interface. In order to move forward in scenes on my PS4, you have to use the archaic VHS style to do so. Meanwhile Netflix just allows me to press the right button on the d pad to find the scene I want to move forward in.

I watched it knowing it was one of the least popular Best Picture winners.

I thought it was fine. Compared to all of the other winners, I'd probably put it somewhere in the middle.
