Some plastics are, some are not. Polymers like polyethylene and polypropylene can be partially crystalline. Typical commercial polystyrene is not crystalline, although a crystallized resin form (syndiotactic polystyrene) has been produced that resists deformation up to about 270 degrees C.

No it is an amorphouse system. Crystal's will have a very organized pattern that is identical throughout, where as plastics are more of a intervoven system of long polymers chaings.
