1) Threw instead of Thru

2) Brendan not Branden

3) I think in your context I would capitalize Middle Eastern. Not sure though.
 
period after 'he threw it in the pot'

no apostrophe in Latinos

impactful instead of impacting (both are awkward)

only one 'never forget' in the Rodney King sentence

waaay too many commas- after hitters, characters

middle Eastern

period after week

reminding 'who' or 'what' of Rodney's scene?

Born instead of Borne

Daniel's (needs possessive)

no comma after feeling

no comma after housewife

carjacking is one word

Bridges... change the structure of this sentence- dangling participle

cast were not where

Mr. (no apostrophe) Haggis

deserve not disserve


D- :ack2:
 
"CRASH, unfortunately the title is rather fitting. " is an incomplete sentance and awkward. If you use it, maybe put in a semi-colon instead of a colon.

"of way to many characters, " - to should be too

"thru" should be threw

Cash is right - Middle Eastern should be capitalized.

"Latino’s, " should not have an apostrophe - it isn't a possessive

"Truly a shame as this premise for the film has some real potential to make an impacting social statement" What premise? I think it should be "the premise".

I can keep going if you want. That's just what I found in the first paragraph.
 
I love to proof read stuff. If you want me to go through the entire paper, I'll just edit it with Word's proof reading marks and re-attach it.
 
I normally write better, but my brain has become complete jello getting ready for finals.. your help is definitly appreciated
 
I put in comments. You have a lot of run on sentances. If you don't see them, turn on the Review toolbar in word

I put my user name after it so you could open both documents at the same time.
