Brave-Traveler.asf (Brave_TraveIor) You dont need to watch the critically acclaimed film 'Crash' in order to watch this series. It will just give you an idea of how the format of the series works.It takes multiple stories and characters and intertwines them altogether at some point by intricate writing executed brilliantly imo, I'm alluding to the first season in particular.Looking back now at Dennis Hoppers character, seeing how Ray Donovan has Mickys character convinces me that it was inspired by Hoppers role just done perfectly this time around.This is a great attempt at what is essentially a drama that was ahead of its time and if it were to premiere in 2018 I think it would have gained a massive audience! It was a captivating series that the golden era of TV produced imo. I feel like overall we got an incomplete series seeing how brilliant the first season was to the ending of the second seasons cliffhanger. I would love for this series to be remade and given a star studded cast and refreshing plot with great writers mastering the series.Defintely worth watching and it's available right now on Amazon prime.

emerson-9 Crash Been avoiding this one more or less simply because the movie crash was for me not that good. I saw short-cuts and then after that, saw crash. Therefor, the movie just didn't do anything for me.Then a Sunday afternoon in a rental-store I was facing a quite poor selection of films and ended up with this. Maybe my 10 comes aided by the fact i didn't have high expectations. Still, it's easily among the best things I've seen. Slow paced and maybe sometimes spaced out, true. But in a time when movies running 90min's can feel long, seeing a TV-show of approx 11 hours and just wanting more, that says something.Often there is good shows or movies that simply missed top mark because of some detail. Sound, acting, directing or whatever. This does not. I can't fault the anything about it. Acting is great, storyline, no matter how strange it on occasion might be, everything holds together with some magic feel to it.Watching "just people" in the Short-Cuts way mixed up with some acting and directing in a more D.Lynch way makes this highly entertaining and unique.No, it's not a comedy and it's no Shield and still it hit's targets on both sides. I will really see this one again.

mozli Like other LA stories of the last 12 to 15 years(on cable primarily)this show wants to give a broad overview of the City of Angels. It has good pedigree considering its creator just came off The Shield. The show also has the humor and sometimes off-kilter meditative quality of the film. The other thing that comes through is that this is the TV show Mulholland Drive might have become had ABC allowed David Lynch to continue.Don Cheadle definitely has delivered a high quality show with Dennis Hopper as its anchor. Lots of great new faces and a few familiar older ones. I've seen some complaints about Ben and Anthony's relationship. Some people read it as slave and master. I'll admit I haven't seen enough of the show yet. We'll see. Right now it seems more familial.

faint119 First let me just say I loved the first two episodes, they were amazing.But as I looked through all the bad reviews it's gotten from the critics I've noticed something. Every one of them went into this with the pre-conceived notion that it was going to be just like the movie. They wrote whole articles saying why it doesn't live up to the movie, which is even something I can agree on, but the show isn't supposed to be just like the movie. The pilot was intriguing, funny, bold, and sexy; everything you would expect from a show on Starz.Most of those critics are still hung up on the fact that the movie itself won an Oscar. I liked the movie, but comparing a full feature length movie to 2 episodes of a 13 episode series is irresponsible when you have an obligation to your audience to give your honest opinion on what you just saw. There wasn't one review that didn't mention the movie. Sure it's not so in your face about racism like the movie was but that's all they seemed to focused on.What I saw was 2 episodes of people with their own problems trying to survive. Terrific acting from the entire cast and an interesting story to boot.Crash hasn't promised anyone anything, so why is everyone acting so let down?
