Critic Reviews

Verne Gay

Gritty, jarring, profane and smartly produced. Read full review

Ginia Bellafante

The show, the first original drama series made for Starz, is hardly the most original depiction of Los Angeles, but Crash has a noirish appeal, and ambitions to tell a big story. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Matt Roush

Crash doesn't burn so much as it simmers. It's provocative and intriguing, but leaves you wondering if the whole setup might not simply work better as a movie. Read full review

Cynthia Fuchs

At once schematic and preachy, it never indicates the stakes--either for its “diverse” players or for you. Read full review

Ray Richmond

The racial fire is oddly muted, the characters disturbingly undefined, the interaction frustratingly nondescript. The truth is, I'm not really sure what this show is supposed to be other than chaotic and boorish Read full review

Matthew Gilbert

Crash tries too hard, and fails hard too. Read full review

Brian Lowry

Messy at best, the two-episode premiere suffers from wildly uneven performances, beginning with Dennis Hopper at his manic worst. Read full review

I loved it! It was gritty and as I see it lived up to the movie in which it is based. I can't see why people hate it soo .....I really can't.

I really like this show, I think it's great. I've only got up to episode 102 b/c i didn't watch it while it was in season, my mistake but I'm catching with the on demand episodes and I have to admit I'm sorry I missed it during regular season.

I really loved the first season, was absolutely great, but maybe thats just me! Season two though... very disappointing. Got rid of many, if not most, of the original characters. Past stories or plots of characters are gone and new characters are introduced much too fast without descriptionI really loved the first season, was absolutely great, but maybe thats just me! Season two though... very disappointing. Got rid of many, if not most, of the original characters. Past stories or plots of characters are gone and new characters are introduced much too fast without description or reason. If you thought season one was bad, season two is DEFINITELY not for you.
Back to the point, this is a review of season one, and I give it 8!… Expand

As bad as the terribly over rated movie.

Another piece of garbage that makes a statement about race and class in Los Angeles, I so wish TV producers would get off the social soapbox and attempted brainwashing of the viewing public!

Boring, terrible plot, too long. No reason to watch next episode.

Stupid movie, stupid show. By presenting the interaction of racial stereotypes as "real" racial issues in America, it only reinforces them by allowing you to feel OK about your prejudices.
