Don't let it's indie roots fool you. Like Crazy is a nostalgic love story of people who know what they want but don't know how to get it.
The acting is superb. Yelchin and Jones have chemistry and they play it across the board. You will smile, laugh, cry, and hold your breath as these two characters waltz in and out of each others' lives. Jennifer Lawrence and Charlie Bewley also deliver great performances.
The thing that sets Like Crazy apart is the fact that it doesn't try to be anything than an honest love story. It doesn't play up stereotypes. It doesn't beat out the indie clichés. The dialogue is naturally paced and feels richly authentic. The subtext is dramatic.
This film is worth every dollar and dime in my mind. If you get the chance, go see it. Take friends who want to share the fun of a good film.
Like Crazy is a fantastic watch and a fresh take on everything you thought you knew about indie romance.

The film was miserable to watch. Christensen delivered a wooden performance, Bilson an empty one. Their characters were beyond selfish and totally unlikeable.
For those of you who protest and say a character doesn't have to be likable, grow up. Even Hannibal is more endearing than this main character, and he EATS PEOPLE, for crying out loud.
The only bright spot in this film is Jamie Bell, who delivers a fantastic, scene-stealing performance as the deranged and somewhat neurotic Griffin. If the entire story had been written around his character, this film would have been a hit.
I love science fiction films. Even the bad ones that don't make the "so bad it's funny" cut. But even I have my limits. Jumper is one film better off forgotten.
