Crash was extremely overrated and full of non-stop cliches, so Amores Perros is easily better IMO.

Come on, really? These kind of ridiculous statements have to stop, just like every movie doesn't need to have a 'WORST MOVIE EVER!' or 'WHY ISN'T THIS IN THE TOP 250?' thread.

Yes, Crash was wayyyyyy overrated and felt simply contrived. Let's just leave it at that.

While I may not call "Crash" one of the decade's worst, I still think it's really contrived and manipulative. Though I agree with the message, I think that it's too "in your face" without being very effective.

I think these films shouldn't be compared really. They're a lot different. "Amores Perros" is gritty, more realistic, and deals with different subject matter. I personally like "Amores Perros" much better.

Crash tries to hard to be a significant movie, Amores Perros IS a significant.
Another problem with Crash is that it had too many storylines, so it was hard to relate to the characters.

Other than the car crash connection, I don't see very many similarities between this and the preachy "Crash." This film wins hands-down.

Crash is a dumb film Amores Perros is not : )

As a matter of fact Crash is probably among the weakest films I have seen of it's kind. It doesn't even hold up to it's semi-knock-off The Air I Breathe and most certainly not to greats like Nashville, Mystery Train, Pulp Fiction and THe Killing.
