Crash

Crash Been avoiding this one more or less simply because the movie crash was for me not that good. I saw short-cuts and then after that, saw crash. Therefor, the movie just didn't do anything for me.

Then a Sunday afternoon in a rental-store I was facing a quite poor selection of films and ended up with this. Maybe my 10 comes aided by the fact i didn't have high expectations. Still, it's easily among the best things I've seen. Slow paced and maybe sometimes spaced out, true. But in a time when movies running 90min's can feel long, seeing a TV-show of approx 11 hours and just wanting more, that says something.

Often there is good shows or movies that simply missed top mark because of some detail. Sound, acting, directing or whatever. This does not. I can't fault the anything about it. Acting is great, storyline, no matter how strange it on occasion might be, everything holds together with some magic feel to it.

Watching "just people" in the Short-Cuts way mixed up with some acting and directing in a more D.Lynch way makes this highly entertaining and unique.

No, it's not a comedy and it's no Shield and still it hit's targets on both sides. I will really see this one again.

You cannot skip a comparison with film and it is definetely another thing. In spite of the pleasure to see Moran Atias, I stopped at 4th episode. Very slow stories, sex- and betrayal-driven. Nothing of the rithm, intensity, characters, surprising contraddictions of the great film. In the 4 episodes I have seen, I liked Dennis Hopper acting, I loved Moran beauty and nothing else.

You dont need to watch the critically acclaimed film 'Crash' in order to watch this series. It will just give you an idea of how the format of the series works.

It takes multiple stories and characters and intertwines them altogether at some point by intricate writing executed brilliantly imo, I'm alluding to the first season in particular.

Looking back now at Dennis Hoppers character, seeing how Ray Donovan has Mickys character convinces me that it was inspired by Hoppers role just done perfectly this time around.

This is a great attempt at what is essentially a drama that was ahead of its time and if it were to premiere in 2018 I think it would have gained a massive audience! It was a captivating series that the golden era of TV produced imo.

I feel like overall we got an incomplete series seeing how brilliant the first season was to the ending of the second seasons cliffhanger.

I would love for this series to be remade and given a star studded cast and refreshing plot with great writers mastering the series.

Defintely worth watching and it's available right now on Amazon prime.

I enjoyed season 1 and could handle the less than stellar acting. Season 2, couldn't even finish it. It was like a bad high school play. Save your time and watch something different.

I don't see the reason some people hate this show. Some say it's unrealistic which I find quite interesting. People who hate these series must be impatient and shallow looking for the final product of the social life they live themselves. The whole point of the episodes is to bounce from one story to another. As strange as it may seem, but I have seen and I know people just like some of the characters of this show. It's not an action movie with a bunch of shooting going on all the time without a reason although there are some action scenes. This is a great show! I can't wait to see the rest of the episodes. It's not my type of a show but I got hooked. I like Entourage, Californication and this is nothing like it, yet I like this one too. Don't expect to watch this and get out of the room, and still be able to follow what's going on after 5 minutes. No way! If you want to watch this, you got to sit down. I give it 10.
