  1. I love the way everyone is just jumping on the bandwagon and comparing this thing to CRASH – as if CRASH was the first film to ever feature multiple storylines and a linking theme. This looks closer to TRAFFIC to me, showing different characters caught up in the immigration system. Go back and look at the Traffic trailer, it’s quite similar, even the way they use the on-screen text.

  2. Hey lawnorder:
    We are comparing it to Crash because it looks like it a piece of shit. We would be comparing it to Traffic if it looked like a great movie.

    The bandwagon is not about Crash being “the first film to ever feature multiple storylines and a linking theme.” The bandwagon is that Crash uses a clusterfuck of stereotypes to beat a hackneyed theme of tolerance into our brains.

  3. It looks like Harrison Ford is finally realizing the mistake he made of passing on Soderburg’s Traffic all those years ago.

    Unfortunately I agree that this looks more like Crash and not enough like Traffic. Hey — at least Ford is stretching a bit with the role.

  4. Well, maybe you great prognosticators should wait until you actually see the film to render your almighty verdicts. With a cast of Ford, Penn, Liotta and Jim Sturgess, I think this is a safer bet than half the shit out right now that’s supposedly Oscar worthy.

  5. I guess this is blasphemy, but I would consider TRAFFIC and CRASH to be about equally bad, with CRASH being somewhat better actually.
