‘Crash' is a sexually explicit bizarre kind of film wher fetish over vehicular collisions is beautifully captured on the camera but if you are expecting this movie to be an evening's erotic entertainment, you are going to be disappointed
Those of you who can digest director Cronenberg's weird ideas and screenplays without getting constipated ....then this is your cup of tea. Director also claimed that the entire film was shot within a half hour of his house in Toronto, Canada...
no wonder 
Basically plot focuses on human ‘emotions’..oops sorry human ‘conditions’ and how they are affected by our choice of technology...here, in the movie… people behave in a very abnormal fashion, seemingly without anyone else noticing....
there are no motives or background to propel their actions, they simply follow the path which feeds the void withinPerformances by lead actors are flawless... flawless in their avoidance of 'emotions' . I really dropped my jaw looking at the continuous stream of sex acts and the car crashes which are, very effectively shot, but the film is just too sterile, too clinical to disturb.... i mean there is no salt in it....kuch feekha feekha sa lagtha hain

Movie doesn't even make it as a soft porn flick... instead it's a sophisticated 'maybe porn, but not art….may be art but not porn…or jus artistic porn' kinda movie.. endlessly treading the same path and never getting anywhere. IMO, if Cronenberg has a point to make, he doesn't state it with any clarity... all he lets the audience do is observe, denied even the opportunity to share the seriously deviated human behaviours.
A real disappointment from Cronenberg! I used to like his films, but this one is making me pee blood..but still i must say, above all, a brave attempt to explore an almost un-bearable subject – the death of affect and our unconscious desire for violence…
This movi is not for every one.. do view it with an opened mind expectin gore, strong language, nudity and homo-sexuality
My rating 6.5/10 ( my grades are heavily influenced by soft porn in the movie
)
