    Crush a Great Movie!

    I just bought it last week and watched it and I loved it! Being a tae kwon do devotee in my younger days I loved the fight scenes and the music was fantastic. I thought Chris Egan and Emma Lung were brilliant. I faintly remember Chris Egan from Home and Away but that was a long time ago and he is a solid actor, he is perfect in this role. He doesn't look too bad either! Emma Lung is absolutely gorgeous and is an absolute standout in this movie. Her progression from seductress to something a lot more is incredible to watch. What a great story with some really neat twists. I am going out to buy some more copies for Christmas presents!

    mediocre Mixture of Thriller/Horror and Supernatural. Nasty Dish!

    CRUSH – TRASH IT ( D ) I knew from the promos that Crush is an average thriller so, sometimes these average thrillers becomes quite entertaining because of Sex, Glamour and fear. Unfortunately, here they had the perfect young cast but they didn't utilize them well and in the end it became a mediocre Mixture of Thriller/Horror and Supernatural. Nasty Dish! The most Annoying & laughable scenes in the movie were the Sex scenes. I don't know what the director was thinking? Just tell me guys who has Sex with clothes On? No one in Real world But here they had! LOL :-D what a Shame! Chris Egan is a young Australian actor and the major reason I saw this movie in first place, as I loved his work in "Letters to Juliet". He is quite inspiring even in this mediocre Trash he kept me going. Emma Lung looks Stunning in Red Swim suit but otherwise she looks old N weird. Brooke Harmon was an average blonde both in talent & beauty. So, Simply Trash this One!

    A potentially good ghost story...

    gets more and more preposterous as it goes along. I expected great things from Emma Lung when I saw her first a few years back in Peaches (with Hugo Weaving). She shows the same promise here, albeit with a poorly underwritten role; the fact that she fills out a bikini quite nicely doesn't hurt, either. In fact, both young leads (Chris Egan plays Julian, her reluctant paramour) do the best they can with the material, but the fault here lies with the story and script. Julian is an American kick-boxing up-and-comer, studying architecture at college in Australia. Strapped for cash, he accepts a short-term job as a solo house-sitter in a luxurious gated home, and then things start getting weird when the owner's niece Anna (Ms. Lung) starts sneaking in at all times of the day, in various states of undress, with an ever-present "come hither" look in her eyes. Alas, at this point all starts going downhill, with things becoming more and more far-fetched every time Julian awakens from another one of his "dreams". If you're a fan of either Mr. Egan or Ms. Lung, watch this one at your own peril. Otherwise, save yourself the time and effort, and throw The Exorcist into your player for the umpteenth time. You've been warned...

    Woulda Coulda Shoulda

    Crush had enough going for it that it could have been a decent and original femme fatale film with its supernatural spin. Unfortunately, despite the rave reviews, it's a very limp flick.

    Julian (played by Heath Ledger/Ryan Phillippe wanna-be Christopher Egan) has a lot going for him; a scholarship studying architecture, a loving girlfriend, and a blossoming martial arts hobby. When he agrees to house sit an upscale home in suburban Australia, he meets Anna (Emma Lung) and decides to put it all on the line by bedding her down. Of course it is no surprise that when Julian tries to have his cake and eat it too, Anna isn't too keen on the idea wanting him all to herself.

    Sound familiar? Well it is. Where it had the potential to be frightening it fails comically. Part of its problem is that Egan's acting is so shallow the audience doesn't give two hoots for the guy and his self imposed peril. In fact, I found myself cheering for the villain, actually sympathizing with her that she would desire such a twit.

    Spare yourself some grief and rent Fatal Attraction. Even if you have already seen it, a second or even third viewing will be far more engaging than this fodder.
