Re: Like Crazy
I didn't hate Haywire as much as everyone else seemed to so I ignored the reviews for this and trotted off to see it. What a dreadful, bad film and every time I thought why did they ...? or why didn't they ...? I immediately thought who cares?
But I think the person who completely ruined it was the editor what with all the 'clever' ways of showing time passing and SO many continuity errors.
Such a waste of Jennifer Lawrence too.

Re: Like Crazy
I actually quite liked it! I did feel it was too long in some places (even at 82 minutes) and I really didn't like the ending, but overal I enjoyed watching the film. Can give it a 6.8?
(overall it was a 7.5 for me, but taking some points off for slowness and ending)

Re: Like Crazy
We were asked to show our times+ cards here at Bournemouth Odeon,managed to blag my way in. The cinema was well full and very hot and airless. As for the film it was ok if you had nothing better to do and as for the ending the lights came on before the film finished or did they run out of money so you had to make your own ending.

Re: Like Crazy
These comments are making me glad I chose Carnage tonight instead. I don't even mind not having another chance to see Like Crazy.
Re: Like Crazy
Oh, That was lucky! I replaced my child with my friend at the last moment!
No way it's 12A
THIS IS A 15! I wouldn't want my child to watch that! That sends a wrong message to start with!
I liked the film only because it relates to me... I had a long distance relantionship and long distance marriage. We spent a few months apart after honeymoon, in different countries... which probably wasn't such a bad thing?
the way I look at it now... But that was ages ago... History....
Only because of my own experience 8/10





Re: Like Crazy
Since the sixties they have been trying to repeat the success of "LOVE STORY" and failed miserably.
What I don't understand is how it won the Grand Jury of last year's Sundance!
Pretty boring!

Re: Like Crazy
Went to see it at Holloway Road and I actually enjoyed it. I felt it portrayed the evolution of the relationship between the 2 characters in a interesting way. I did notice it was a bit long though. 8/10.
