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.

Story Synopsis:
With an opening scene and title like "Crash," I was expecting a movie revolving around a car accident. Boy, was I wrong! This film features an all-star cast (all of whom give outstanding performances) and takes place in a single day. The group of different colored strangers from different wakes of life seem to have nothing at all in common, but their lives intersect through the one thing they all share-that awful truth, prejudice. (Tricia Spears)
DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced DVD picture exhibits a generally sharp picture, though some scenes appear somewhat blurry. Colors are generally well balanced, with natural fleshtones, but saturation tends to vary a bit. At times, hues can appear rich and vibrant, while other times darker scenes can appear slightly milky or unnatural. Some pixelization is noticed, but there is no bothersome edge enhancement. The source element is quite clean, with only slightly noticeable film grain at times. (Suzanne Hodges)
Soundtrack:
Solid, deep bass is the highlight of the Dolby® Digital 5.1-channel soundtrack, with sub-25 Hz bass presented through each of the full-range channels at many times during the presentation. A slightly rustling noise can be heard over dialogue, which can be distracting at the 85 dB relative reference level, but is less audible at lower levels. Other than the rustling, dialogue can sound slightly forward, and does not have the level of clarity and articulation that can be attained. Surrounds are used well with music, but they can be completely ignored indoors, and are used at low levels outdoors for atmospheric effects. (Danny Richelieu)
