I saw a couple reviews here calling "City of Hope" the "Crash" before "Crash". I think that sums it up quite well. This is a more emotionally complex version, in fact, forgoing the "gotcha" cleverness of "Crash" as you begin to realize how all the characters are connect, and instead connecting all the characters in a much more organic plot structure. I'm biased because I've become a big John Sayles fan, but he really is the most consistent storyteller I've encountered in my movie viewing. And as with all of his films, there are large social themes that are humanized in a great cast, including city corruption, racism, and poverty. And this really is a stellar cast; Joe Morton in particular shines as a city councilman struggling between his ethics and the "greater good". David Strathairn has a small, but excellent and very un-Strathairn-like role as a mentally ill homeless man. A satisfying, complex story.

Sayles' strategy is unique and sneaky without being self-serving... An epic-scale examination of how the bad guy never knows he's the bad guy.

Another great Sayles ensemble cast piece.

A rare Sayles misstep that lets the message overrule the material.

It is criminal that this film still isn't available in DVD format.
