Collision (2013)

Memorable, crazy movie

Absolutely Brilliant!

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

OK it is not a terrible movie and watchable to some level but definitely not a nice movie...Frank Grillo as Scot and Roschdy Zem as Saleh are the performances worth watching not because they are acting award winners but because the others are not acting good.As the story goes everybody connecting to each other somehow is not a good idea so I don't understand why people praise this movie for this...Actually it makes the movie predictable and ''one of those movies''..My conclusion is watch this movie only if you don't have another movie to watch..By the way I watched this movie under the name '' Intersections'' but when I came to IMDb to read the reviews about it then I found out it has another name ''Collision''..

The first half-hour or so is intentionally confusing and rather draggy, but all that's going on becomes apparent throughout the rest of the film, which is well-produced with good, though not great, acting. A film without heroes, COLLISION may be a bit too violent, gory, and grim for some tastes. It's also a bit too humorless and slow-moving to be called a "thriller." Still, the way it shows how the different circles of people and the supposed allies within the circles conspire and are all at odds with each and every other is thought-provoking. The whole message seems to be that "No one wins--or if anyone does, it's the wrong people in the wrong ways--when people conspire and connive over money, power, 'love,' etc." COLLISION also takes some risks in the way its entanglements untangle at the disheartening but strangely fitting end. As unsettling as it may be, this film is anything but predictable.

All the phony reviews won't help - this garbage isn't even as entertaining as watching a heap of camel dung blistering under a hot desert sun.A lady wants to kill her hubby and for some reason thinks it is a good idea to do so on a sahara vacation.But of course her best laid plans to simply shoot her hubby go terrible wrong and that's when she probably thought "Hey being in the sahara and all why don't I earn some cash with some product placement and show my great SUV from all angles" That's when she must have stumbled upon a camp of bedouins she hired on the spot as a film crew "Guys it doesn't matter that you don't have any idea how to shoot a good movie and that you have no talent what so ever - just keep my SUV inside the frame."And that is what this "movie" is really all about - some zero-talent guys and gals making a whole lot of camel dung in the desert.Skip this and trust the negative ratings - they are well deserved.

It is very surprising that this movie has a lower rating. It is actually a very good movie. The story is good and the acting is very good. All of the actors are new to me with the exception of one who acted in days of glory another good movie.Would recommend anyone who likes good movies to watch this disregarding the current low rating. You would not be disappointed. It keeps you thinking and at the edge of your seat for most of the movie. This is not a movie that you can watch and easily predict the ending. To think that I almost did not watch this movie because the rating was a little low for me. Wow was I surprised. This is a movie of intrigue, treachery, action and deception. The list could go on.
