Oh my God, I could hardly believe that such a crap could have been made. OK, car crashes and production design besides the fantastic stunt work are awesome. Tony Hopkins is also delightful in the heavy guy, but if you forget this, this is an unbearable straight to garbage can played by an even more unbearable d...head actor, a sort of handsome sh...head blue eyes jerk, to whom you crave to blow his head of. The kind of character who, after a car crash in which ANYONE on earth would be killed, get out of it without even a scratch...How can a director hope fooling the audiences? Not me anyway. I lost m precious time with this crap and I am not surprised that the producing company bankrupted with such nonsense. I think she could have been on a trial for making such sh...And the question, the most important one is what the hell Ben Kingsley did in this mess? His financial must be awful I guess...What a pity for such a gifted actor like him.

This film tells the story of an American backpacker, who meets an attractive woman in a German bar. It turns out the woman has a medical condition, so the guy has to turn to the life of crime to fund her operation."Collide" is action packed alright. It is adrenaline fuelled, as it has numerous car chases, fights and shootings. It is quite a departure from the usual Nicolas Hoult's films. I have not imagined him to be in such a role before, but he is believable as a desperate man with much courage and skills. Overall, it is an enjoyable film, making you turn your brain off for 100 minutes.

Casey (Hoult) and Julia (Jones) fall in love, but Julia needs a kidney transplant. Casey decides to go back to work as a driver for his old boss Geran (Kingsley) running drugs to get the money for the operation. Because Geran's partner Kahl (Hopkins) won't treat him like an equal, Geran decides to hijack one of Kahl's drug shipments. Oh, oh!This is a most exciting movie mostly because of the spectacular vehicle stunts whether or not using CGI. The driving and the crashes are actually things of beauty and the choreography of these stunts must be applauded. Kudos. You think you have seen crashes? Not like these. Fasten your seat belt. Casey and his friend Matthias (Marwan Kenzari) plan how the heist will go, but, of course, things don't go exactly according to their plan. Kahl discovers his truck has been hijacked and now Casey is on the run from Kahl's men with guns ablazing. The rest of the movie is Casey on the run from Kahl's men and, at times, you think he is stopped, but hey, this is a movie and he escapes time after time. Kind of unbelievable. The photography and the editing are spot on terrific and the pacing won't let you relax. Kudos.The acting all around is good although we see Ben Kingsley's character in a quite animated role and Anthony Hopkins' character likes to quote Shakespeare at times. The music is nothing but heart stomping good. There is somewhat of twist in here, but nothing you have to try to figure out. You'll see. (7/10)Violence: Yes. Sex: No. Nudity: No. Language: No.

Another waste of time. This movie is just about car chasing/races dressed up with a very small touch of romance. It's ridiculous and pointless. There are no surprises. You would think by the actors that it might be good but no, it's a complete waste of time. Watch something else if you can.
