Intersections

First of all, seeing the rating, I thought the film would be average, but when I actually saw it, i was impressed. It's definitely underrated. The film has it all - unpredictable plot, good acting, interesting characters, suspenseful moments etc. The actors were unknown to me, but they did a very good job. Although the film was shot pretty much in one or two locations, it didn't get boring because of the intriguing plot. Along the way, you learn more and more things about the characters and it's quite interesting to follow their story. I really don't know why this is such a little-known film. It was pretty intense from the beginning and I definitely recommend it to all drama/thriller fans.

RANDOM FILMS PART 7 Now, what can I say about Collision? Shall I mention it was originally called 'Intersections'? I'm sensing a theme here...

Should I talk about the fact that no-one can trust each other? Seriously, this is House Of Cards levels of deception...

I could prattle on about how there isn't a decent woman to be found in the movie (apart from right at the end)?

On the same topic, how about the underlying sexist message that females are only after one thing? (Clue: It start with M and rhymes with funny, though they're not spelt the same, unless you're dyslexic. )

There's a REALLY good car cra... Oh, you already guessed that by looking at the title. Silly me.

Er... The desert looks good at this time of year? Seriously folks, I'm struggling here. I've seen ALL this before... The backstabbing, the artificial tension, the stupid decisions, the frenetic last few minutes... Only, done much better.

Wondering why you've never heard of this film? Wonder no longer. 5/10

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.

I did not expect much from this film, but I received a lot. I really do not think this film should of been rated the way it was so low rated.

First of all it has all the good scenery film of this type needs to have. I do not know is it possible to make another film in Marocco again like this, because of the political trouble there. I am glad we got to see all the good scenery which was so well depicted in this film.

Plot is very dynamic and interesting with a lot of twists and turns this type of film needs to have. I really liked those changes and twists and turns.

Acting was very good, actors tried their best.

All in all I recommend that you see this film.

I have no idea why this is rated so low. It's not earth-shattering but it's definitely worth watching. The acting is patchy but not the worst I've seen and the story itself is riveting. In the hands of a more skilled director, with better pacing, more suspense and better actors I think this would have been a top rater. But even so, the story and production is better than average and deserves to be seen. Awesome setting, great twists and turns, some very good action scenes. My biggest issue was with the fact that it was hard to like any of the characters which kills the suspense factor - if you don't like 'em you don't care what happens to them LOL. They needed to develop the characters more and at least make them sympathetic on some level. The only one they really succeeded in doing that with is Saleh but I never got the sense that he was in danger so there was no suspense around him either. Everyone else (except the baby) was fair game to me :) Brilliant plot, that really should have more praise, and nice acting from Roschdy Zem & the baby. :D
