Check out these reviews of the movie we watched in class, Crash:
Which review do you think does the best job of interpreting the film? Why? What did the reviewer get right, and what did they get wrong? What would you add to the review? Post your response as a comment below.
i believe the first one did the best job at reviewing the film because he gave details from the movie that supported what he thought.
ReplyDeleteI think Roger Ebert did the best job of interpreting the film because he went into great detail about everything and he tried to mention all of the characters and all of the situations that took place. In the review I would have added about the young cop and the interaction with the young black guy where he ended up killing him out of fear and also how the Mexican-American locksmith was different from all of the stereotypes of him and how he was included in the racial situations but he didn't place any other character in a racial situation by throwing racial slurs or anything.

ReplyDeleteI think Robert Ebert did the best interpreting because he named just about every event in the movie and it was understanding while the other two focused more on just one scene and was comparing the director's first movie "Million Dollar Baby" to "Crash". I cannot say what was added or what was left out because I have not seen the movie yet.
ReplyDeleteKeyotta Flowers posted the first post and I wouldnt of added anything because i believe he stated everything that needed to be stated.
ReplyDeleteI think Robert Ebert was the best one because he made it clear and understanding about the characters.
ReplyDeleteI beleive that ymag.com review was the best because it told you about some of the charcters and also takes you through the scenes of the beginning of the movie and leaves you wanting more. They also talk about the writers of the movie and their past produtions. They thing they did was bad was not give you more links so you could do more research about the movie. The writers of the review overall did a great job.
ReplyDeleteI feel like the ymag.com review showed alot about the movie. I also think that it was a good review becuase it shows about the multiple charaters in the movie.
ReplyDeleteI think YMAG.com review the movie with the most detailed. It help me by getting to know the characters better. By knowing the characters, it help me to understand the movie more efficient.
