It had the makings of an excellent movie (I loved traffic) but I didn't feel the movie went in depth enough into the plot. It seemed like the movie was supposed to be an hour longer... and I would have liked it to of been. Overall, it was a good movie but not one of my favorites.

WORST part of the movie was when they zoomed in on the word "blanks" on the bullet box. What idiot wouldn't have realized that? And even if they didn't realize it, I think it would have been excellent to leave this ambiguous.

Thoughts?

Flame suit on....check

Personally I thought the whole movie sucked arse. I kept waiting....and waiting....and waiting for it to take off so to speak, and then it was over. I still want my two hours back:|

i liked it. wasnt really an eye-opener for me, which i feel was haggis' intentions. but still, it had an entertaining story and the pacing could have probably used a bit more work (shorten it up and tighten the movie up a bit). but other than that its a movie that i can see myself rewatching again a couple times a year.

IIRC it was on the 10 worst movies of 2005 list, near the top, someone posted the link to that in another thread about it

I remember I was kinda bored with it. I saw it a really long time ago so I don't remember much about it.

It was a pretty good movie. I thought it was a little over the top but I'm sure that was intentional.

I didn't like it. It was wayyy too heavy-handed in delivering its message. I felt like Haggis was treating the audience like a 5-year-old saying "Racism is bad!!!".

Horrible movie and a waste of my time. The fact that it won Best Picture just shows how many crappy movies came out last year.

I thought it was a pretty good movie where they did exaggerate some parts.
I don't think it came even close to the 10 worst movies of 2005.
There are PLENTY of bad movies in 2005. I never seen that list, but that list is already complete crap if Crash was on it.

It was ok but sometimes they tried too hard. Not really worthy of all the praise though

SHE knew it was blanks when she asked for them and SHE loaded the gun.

I think the thread asked what did YOU think of the movie. Not whether it showed up on any lists.
