Leave your thoughts about Like Crazy.
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleThe actors keep their clothes on, but everything else is naked in Like Crazy, a romantic drama that makes other romantic films look obvious and calculated in comparison. |
| Daily Mail (UK)Christopher TookeyWorth seeing for a luminous performance by Felicity Jones, who's even more impressive than she was in Chalet Girl. |
| MovieFreak.comSara Michelle FettersIt is poignant and moving, and by the time its last, touchingly incandescent final image flickers into darkness I almost couldn't believe all I had been lucky enough to witness. |
| USA TodayClaudia PuigDoremus' elegant filmmaking is key to the appeal of the film, but it would never work as superbly without the wonderfully natural, believable performances and powerful chemistry of the lead actors. |
| San Diego Union-TribuneAlison GangDoremus reminds us of what love felt like the first time - before our hearts were dented, dinged or all-out broken - when we could fall irrationally hard, with pure intentions, and no idea that it simply can't stay that way forever. |
| Capital Times (Madison, WI)Rob ThomasYelchin ("Star Trek") and Jones have a terrific, deep rapport on camera, and the result is that rare movie romance that feels organic and authentic, not the product of a screenwriter's imagination. |
| The Scorecard ReviewJeff BayerIt is not pure joy, but instead authentic young love in a difficult situation. It's definitely worth seeing. |
| St. Louis Post-DispatchCalvin WilsonA beautifully realized drama that gets to the essence of what it's like to be young, confused and in love. |
| East Bay ExpressKelly VanceDrake Doremus, a maker of agreeable miniatures, takes another step forward. |
| Christian Science MonitorPeter RainerA semi-improvised, microbudget marvel with a range of feeling that shames most big-budget star-driven movies. |
