It risks being laughed at, and there is a definite, tiny grain of Razzie absurdity that is a part of its weirdly hypnotic high-porn torpor.

[A] necessarily disturbing and equally profound inquiry into human desire, however self-destructive.

For a movie obsessed with the connection between sexual intercourse and car accidents, David Cronenberg's Crash could hardly be more stationary.

While the director remains firmly behind the wheel for the first hour or so, he cracks up toward the end with sequences that send the film and the audience into a ditch.

It's a dark, disturbing, languorous movie, as ludicrous, hermetic and repetitive, perhaps, as Ballard's original, but admirably assured and true to itself.

It's the cold survival logic of Darwin, where libertarians leave their past behind as if it were dead.

Audience Reviews for Crash

Sep 28, 2015Crash is a film I do not have many good things to say about and yet still cannot downrate it because I do like the cast and always enjoy the signature Cronenberg material sensuality that conveys highly distinct tactile sensations via light and sound. That said, Crash is a boring movie and not so much edgy as something to be endured. Crash does not feel cool or adventurous and yet most of the film is action; it is like a pornographic movie -- not much plot but just goes through different scenarios, yet does not feel sexy and so does not create tension. The vibe is corrupt, uncool, and dystopic like a glam rock band playing in the mid 90s to a bored audience in a half-filled stadium that needs to be torn down. They smash their gear and we can only think that it was not worth it, what a waste. I would like to think this was all intentional, because I like other Cronenberg films, but cannot really recommend it except to the curious ones that want to see something different.Robert B Super Reviewer

Feb 01, 2015A perversely disturbing and highly uncomfortable film that bursts with overwhelming sexual intensity as the characters engage in a compulsive fetishistic psychopathology that is strangely telling, even if it will probably leave most viewers repelled and make them never want to see it again.Carlos M Super Reviewer

Jun 24, 2013The "original" crash is pure Cronenberg..a mess that sometimes works but sometimes gets wrapped up in its own insanity. This one somehow stays on the line between..sometimes being quite effective and other times going off the rails.John B Super Reviewer

Aug 25, 2012I am literally scared by the graphic representation of sexual fetishes in the film. Intense but well done performances from everyone. Not too sure about the meaning of this film but it has some intense ideas about sex. I enjoyed the references to the famous crashes, but that's about it.Sylvester K Super Reviewer
