(Running time: 89 Minutes) Rated PG-13
Starring Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones
This movie was advertised as a charming love story involving two college students from different countries. We have Anna (Jones) from England and Jacob (Yelchin) from the United States (Los Angeles) who meet at college. They fall in love and then have to face the difficulties of being separated halfway around the world from each other.
The early scenes of Anna and Jacob getting to know each other, clowning around at the beach, driving little hot rods at an amusement park and so on are delightful. This cute couple connects on an intellectual as well as physical level and the audience falls in love with them as they fall in love with each other.
The separations test their love and being only human, sometimes they fail the tests. At various times both of them get involved with other people and right in the beginning they break the rules regarding immigration for Anna because they cannot bear to be parted.
The breaking of the rule is the plot twist that drives the rest of the movie. Because of that misstep, they cannot get Anna over to the U.S. So Jacob travels to England. What was so touching was the way their love, though dormant for months, became alive again once they were together. The only disappointment was there was no real ending to this movie. It seemed to either peter out or get chopped off at the end instead of having some genuine resolution.
There was no violence, some bad language and a number of sexual scenes and situations though no nudity. Like Crazy is a captivating love story that needs a finish. It should be best for teens who are interested in learning about a love relationship and are not expecting a fast and witty movie.
