Crazy/Beautiful (2001)

the leading man is my tpye

Wonderful character development!

A different way of telling a story

There are women in the film, but none has anything you could call a personality.

This one was really bad, really flaky. It is a story of a strung out unstable girl who doesn't know what she wants and pretends to be in love with some walking stereo-type because she feels sorry for herself and wants to kill herself and sabotage her life. The acting is done by a reluctant actress which is perfect because it portrays what the average girl would be like in such a situation (sarcastic, lying, only doing it to hurt others and sabotage herself instead of suicide.) What a depressing bad-romp. It is filled with every kind of insulting blatant stereo-type and a propaganda of hatred toward white males. This has such a hateful rhetoric that it would be on par with movies that the Nazis would have made. Moral of the story is don't half-bad things in life.. do what you do with your whole being without being hurt, don't do things sarcastically, put your whole being into it. When you do not then you are promoting the most disgusting selfish kind of hatred no different than Nazi propaganda.

I really don't know how can many people enjoy it. I mean, what's even good about this film? Thinking about it, I only can say bad things. To begin, I must say this film is very boring. Nothing really happens, it's just a bunch of uninteresting scenes about a crazy girl and her boyfriend wannabe. There are lots of idiocracies that made me laugh (and get mad at the same time). For example, her dad says that she finally a decent boy and he trusts him, and one minute later he says he doesn't want him to see his daughter anymore? What??? And the conversations between Carlos and his mother? She speaks in Spanish and he speaks in English, and they both have no misunderstanding problem. Why don't they just speak the same language? And which kind of girl has no problem in having sex in front of her father? Is it even possible to exist? And why can't Jay Hernandez ever portray an ordinary American boy? Doesn't he agree with that or what? And despite all that, I honestly didn't believe in their love. It seemed to me the writers didn't make a decent development of their relationship. A shame after all...

Hi my name is Tom Barry and I don't know why this movie is so underrated. It's totally my favorite movie ever. Kirsten Dunst is the absolute best thing to happen to Hollywood since Tom Cruise. I love her so much and I love all her movies. In this movie she plays a tough girl with some serious problems, but then she meets the guy of her dreams who makes everything alright again. Oh boy, this is a recipe for movie magic! I honestly think this is the most perfect movie ever made. The acting is so realistic and emotional. Jay Hernandez has his break out role in this movie. If you thought he was good in Hostel, you'll love him in this one. But Kirsten steals the show with her magnetic smile and stunning bod. I think about her performance every night before I go to sleep, this movie has affected me that much. Obviously, there is something in my personal life that relates so much to this movie, but I still think it is the most overlooked movie ever."You are Crazy/Beautiful" ---- best quote ever!

This was an excellent performance by the two lead actors, Kirsten Dunst and Jay Hernandez. Their actions and situations were gritty and real, and they seemed very much like real un-Hollywood type characters throughout. And wow ... this was truly a great illustration of the strength of genuine love despite imperfections, despite society's view of what's right and what's wrong and what's successful and what's not. And most of all, I was greatly struck by the illustration of how belief in a person (and love for a person) whom others find unacceptable or unlovable can so powerfully TRANSFORM that person. The Kirsten Dunst character goes through a rather big change, a change that you would've thought impossible, but she pulls it off believably.
