The true America. Review on Crash Movie

Well, I heard so much about this movie that I managed to drag my sister along with some friends to go and watch it early afternoon. I'd say this is one of the best movies that have been released in a very long time! This movie gives you an in-depth view of the darker side to humanity and how we all live a life of oppression in some way or the other. The cast of this movie are Sandra Bullock, Don Cheadle, Matt Dillon, Jennifer Esposito, and William Fichtner. This movie basically shows you a chain of events that somehow each character is connected to one another but each with their own respective personalities. A Persian man who's mistaken for being Arab, who own a convenient store - are being harassed and robbed by racist people in the neighborhood where their shop is situated at. This man goes to his daughter to an ammunition store and upon hearing this man's accent, the store keeper refuses to sell this man a gun because this Persian man sounds like an Arab. He then agrees to sell the gun to the Persian man's daughter who has to hear sexual insults from the shopkeeper before she can leave. For some reason this girl buys empty bullets which works around to saving a girls life (which is shown later in the movie). There are also 2 police detectives who are investigating a murder who are in a relationship. The cops played by Don Cheadle and Jennifer Esposito share a platonic relationship. They again show how ignorant regular American people are to the vast community of people living amongst them that he calls her 'White' instead of calling her a Hispanic. The next set of characters is played by Sandra Bullock and Brandon Frasier who is a politician and is facing problems during election time. They show how they are walking on a street while suddenly two black men walk up to them and steal their car. These 2 black men, out of which one is Don Cheadle's lost brother who steals for a living and it wanted by the police. Mat Dillion plays a role of a racist cop who loves toying around with black people. He stops a film director and his wife in their car, insults and molests his wife so he can hear her husband apologies to him and his partner but towards the end Matt Dillion ends up saving this film directors wife.

Sadly, crash includes every aspect in our life related to prejudice and racism. It questions us and bothers us that how true all of these things are. People are insulting other people with out knowing him/her. We see small glimpses of each character but every character is complex, filled and personally I felt related to them all.
