Review of Crash (2005) by Rick Groen for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) — 15 Feb 2011
The result is a film where blisteringly naturalistic drama bumps up against sentimentally arch melodrama (that's the biggest collision in Crash). Haggis showed the same tendency in his script for "Million Dollar Baby," yet there it was better hidden under a simpler narrative.
Here, the tendency has gotten magnified right along with his thematic ambitions.
