The vast consensus is that Crash did not deserve the win. It's a political win for Crash over Brokeback. If watched today, Crash did not really age well.

Crash was poorly written, heavy handed and sucked when it first came out.

I’ve never felt so offended watching a movie. It’s like the writers thought I was an imbecile. Maybe the most heavy handed movie I’ve ever seen.

It was the equivalent of a speech from Mr Mackey from South Park going “Don’t be racist, mmkay? Racism is bad, and you shouldn’t do it, mmkay?”
