Webster's Dictionary defines "Collision" as:
KO-LISH-UN - noun 1. A crash; a disaster; a horrible accident causing much suffering; "That collision I saw today sure was agonizing to watch." 2. The act or process of collision.
So I guess we can say one good thing about this documentary "film" and concede that the title is well chosen, for it's a disaster of a B-grade movie that crashes as soon as it takes off. The "film"makers here have cut up a bunch of Hitchens-Wilson debates off of Youtube, bundled them together, added a dash of behind-the-scenes banter, and sold it off as a film. It's a credit-default swap of a movie, and about as derivative and worthless. Amateurish, shiftless, sloppy, dithering, pointless, it's like they re-edited the H-W debates into a bad MTV music video for kids with attention-deficit disorder, right down to the lame soundtrack. Gangsta rap with Pastor Douglas Wilson? I mean come on, Wilson is about as white as a human being can get. It's just so awful and out-of-place.
