FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
HeyMrOwl Say what you want about this film but I'm a believer in responding to a movie within the context of its intentions. This is a solid indie comedy, great performances all around, well shot and put together considering what I imagine were its budgetary restrictions. I've read some reviews that seem to aggressively attack certain aspects of this film to a nonsensical degree. It was definitely funny, definitely well shot (unless you don't know what that actually means) and even though yes, it had script issues, it was an all around good time. Worth a watch for a good laugh on movie night, check it out.
barbikins-78001 I think audiences will be able to see themselves or someone they know in this movie. This film has a great premise that takes a few jabs at all the people in our society who will do anything to be in the spotlight. The film shows a few limitations of being on a tight budget, but overall, it looks good, the acting is good, and the lead characters are all interesting. It's really two stories in one - it starts out as a social commentary and then morphs into an escape/action flick. The film is a little bizarre and unpredictable - but that's a good thing as it kept my attention from start to finish. I can't say that for a lot of movies I see nowadays.
jorgeumana The movie is a comedic twist on the modern day obsession with instant fame. Crazy Famous is a unique take with a "literally" crazy band of strangers that join together to help deliver one member's lifetime need for some of the spotlight. As they carry out their master plan, there are plenty of laughs and some even learn the lesson of what's really important. **Spoiler Alert** I'll never be able to watch Dr. Phil again without thinking of Crazy Famous! A fun time, as movies should be. Highly Recommend It!
aluasha This movie is wild and relatable because it directly pokes fun at our modern-day culture's obsession with being famous. The lead character, Bob, is a lovable, wide-eyed average Joe who will do almost ANYTHING to be famous. His antics land him in a mental institution where he meets a patient who thinks he's James Bond. The Bond guy, who is constantly high on psychiatric drugs, tells Bob if he helps him escape, he can make him famous by capturing Osama Bin Laden, who of course, is already dead. With the help of 2 other patients (a Dr. Phil wannabe and a angry compulsive eater), they all successfully escape. Then the film surprises - - because it's not only funny (the scene where they visit a gun store is classic comedy), but it also turns heart-warming. The film is not perfect and you have to buy into the premise that there's a huge government cover-up. And the film is too short. But in spite of being low budget with an unknown cast (I did recognize the "Office Space" guy), it has good acting and an interesting story. This alone makes Crazy Famous a film definitely worth watching.
