Critical Consensus: “Crash” Garners Bullock First Fresh Film in Nearly a Decade
by Senh Duong | May 05, 2005
Blog Article | Discuss Article
Summary

Two weeks before the release of the final Star Wars movie where we finally get to see Anakin Skywalker giving over to the dark side of the Force, three new wide releases will try to tempt us into forking over our money this weekend. Orlando Bloom headlines Ridley Scott’s (“Gladiator”) epic tale about a blacksmith who goes on to achieve great fame in “Kingdom of Heaven.” Elisha Cuthbert (“24”) tries her luck in yet another horror remake, “House of Wax.” Sandra Bullock teams up with Don Cheadle and an ensemble cast in “Crash,” a drama about race relations. We’ll see which of these new releases will be able to seduce the nation’s print, online, and broadcast critics. Back to Article

I really don't have much to say about this weekend's releases; I just wanted to leave a comment since the article was so long. Nice work Sehn!

Madman

P.S. I'll probably only check out crash in theatres out of these three and wait for kingdom of heaven to hit video. I'll pass on House of Wax. I guess I had something to say afterall.

Hehe...thanks, Madman! I'm dreading next week. There'll be five new wide releases. It'll be twice as long as this article.

[b]nice work senh[/b]
your weekly consensus (spelling :) ) is something i look forward to every week. I also used to receive something similar in my email; but it's stopped suddenly...do i need to email somebody about this and get it fixed?

Hey zooter,

You have a yahoo email. For some reason, they think everything coming from RottenTomatoes.com is spam. Check your spam box, it's probably there. Afterwards, mess around with your spam settings.

I should, but by then it's probably old news. Damn those flip-floppers.
