LOL, you're 100% right. I'm actually getting worried at how much of a total ***** I am when I watch films. For example put Lion King on and I'll have to fight real hard when Mufasa snuffs it! REAL HARD!!! 
Tbh, I saw the film at the cinema and can't remember much of the detail of it. I'll have to rent it out. I remember the message about the power of prejudice and I felt it was delivered effectively. Plus, bullock's nae bad

Thought it was a rediculous film. It goes on my list of films I wish I had never wasted my time watching. (The only other I can think of is "Blair Witch")
I thought it was pretentious and the "point" or moral of the story was absurd. I think it is scary that the scriptwriter still thinks people talk, think and live like that. Even more scary that he may be right, but I doubt it.
It couldn't have been more hysterically stereotypical if it had tried.
Over-cooked bullsh1t playing up to an aged issue and IMO I think people feel they should like films like that as they "portray an important message" about society. It didn't for me.
Obviously I could be wrong!

As for Crash, I really liked it. However you would have to catch a plane to get anywhere near the height at which it went over the GFs head!
