    A bit late seeing it, but a good film, nicely produced and engaging. I felt it presented the manner in which prejudice manifests itself in a compelling series of interconnected events. Definitely recommended.

    I thought it was like a channel5 midday chick flick with OTT melodrama. Well executed though.

    Not my bag, but others will like it.

    I thought it was an excellent film and agree with the first comments - prepare to have a lump in your throat at certain points.

    Watched this last night.

    There's a lot going on and it took a while to pick up on who certain characters were and their roles. I enjoyed it, and will certainly be watching it again if only to pick up bits I missed first time.

    Well worth watching.

    As mentioned in an earlier Crash thread, that's what I thought people were on about with this newer release of the same name.

    The Cronenberg one is certainly not chick flick!

    Only just got around to watching this after seeing the dvd in Lidl and remembering it generated plenty of positive words when it was released.

    I did enjoy it but I couldn't help thinking it was very similar to Magnolia. It seemed almost the same film but with a different theme. Obviously any film wanting to interlink various stories is going to be slightly reminiscent I suppose but I did find myself thinking that it had already been done.
