Crazy Famous

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.

I think audiences will be able to see themselves or someone they know in this movie. The film does a great job at taking a few jabs at all the people who will do anything to become a celebrity. It's really two stories in one: it starts out as a social commentary and morphs into an escape/action flick. The movie does have a few flaws thanks to its low budget, but on the whole, it looks good, the acting is good, and you actually care about the characters. It's funny too. The film is a little bizarre and unpredictable, but that's a good thing as it keeps your attention from start to finish. That's something I can't say about a lot of movies I see nowadays.

Totally enjoyed the movie. Who can't get over David Neal Levine as the most believable Dr. Phil as a mental patient. The cast was awesome... Laughed all the way through the movie. Trying to be famous isn't easy as Bob and his band of friends find out. It has it's ups and downs. Sit back and enjoy!

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.

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!
