Crash is from Writer-Director Paul Haggis and brings a great script and acting to an intense subject matter but never goes too soft on the audience or too rough. Another great oscar-winner.
"Crash" begs a lot of hard questions for today's modern day xenophobic audiences, but seldom does it reward us with answers. I probably wouldn't like this film very much if it wasn't so modern and revelant to the problems we face as Americans today, I thoroughly enjoyed this film. The ensemble was spot-on, and you couldn't have asked for a better script. As for as content-wise, there were several mature topics and scenes, I would advise the edited-for-TV version as I saw it.
I was 12 when I first saw the movie. Before you all jump on me my mom "edited" a few of the sexual scenes. Other than that sure, the language was a little bit strong, but it emphasized the movie. After awhile, (like I do with most movies), I didnt even notice the cuss words. What I'm tryin to say is depending on the maturity of your child, I think the appropiate age to watch this movie would be 14. It was a great movie that had deep issues and an amaing storyline. My favorite movie so far.
This movie really puts everything in perspective and makes you think about everything that happens in the world. Brilliantly done and really touching and moving. Some innapropraite scenes but a good movie to show kids who just dont understand all the problems in today's society
