While writer-director-editor Aram Rappaport draws effectively weighted performances (especially from the always committed Driver) and maintains a crisp pace, he’s less adept at balancing those big picture thriller elements with Clifton’s personal journey, which ultimately serves to rob both aspects of greater potency.

The film may be too preposterous to take seriously, but at least writer-director Aram Rappaport trains his sights on the right enemies. Read full review

These are all cartoon figures out of Frank Capra’s most feverish populist nightmares. Read full review

The Crash fumbles between bad diatribe and bad domestic drama, complete with subplots about absent parents and childhood cancer. Read full review

Several respectable actors offer dicey performances here, but Rappaport's screenplay is the real villain, expecting thin references to real-world financial peril to paper over gaping holes in credibility and plain-old drama. Read full review

Of the many disheartening things about The Crash — a script filled with platitudes, casting an able-bodied actor as a wheelchair-bound tech expert, near-criminal underuse of Maggie Q — the worst is its habit of slapping the audience over the head with symbolism. Read full review

Watching a bad movie can be fun for reasons that have less to do with its essence than with its trappings. I enjoyed some of the characters’ cardboard and/or plastic names. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is just your average corruption film. The acting was wooden, the characters were bland, the daughter and the young hacker were annoying, the script was awful, the movie was predictable, the camera work was bad, the story was stupid and unoriginal and most of the movie was boring. There is nothing in this movie that hasn't already been made. At least the last half hour wasn't that bad compared to the rest of the movie. It's not the worst thing I have ever seen, but let's say that it's your typical January movie. If you want my advice, you should skip it.… Expand
