Opposites attract in this love story for the younger set. Carlos is a straight-laced poor boy working his way toward a better life. Nicole is a rich girl with a wild streak who can't seem to stay out of trouble. Can it be that they're meant for each other? Yes, of course it can. Crazy/Beautiful follows a familiar pattern--the two young lovers come from different worlds, and no one else understands them--but has a few intelligent wrinkles to the standard star-crossed plot. Nicole's dad, for example, actually likes Carlos and worries that Nicole will corrupt him. Kirsten Dunst and Jay Hernandez give assured performances as the young lovers, and the movie's message of tolerance comes across without being preachy. As teen love stories go, you could do far worse. Adults may be left cold by Crazy/Beautiful, but teens--especially those with a dramatic streak--will enjoy this well-intentioned romance. --Ali Davis

 Excellent condition and delivered promptly! October 10, 2008
The DVD was delivered promptly and it was in excellent condition. The price was great!
 Ok film but could have been better March 26, 2008
Crazy/Beautiful could have been a great film but director John Stockwell was forced to cut it to please those at Disney. The film originally called for nude scenes for the character of Nicole and a more explict sex scene between Nicole and Carlos. The film could have been a true to life about interacial dating, drug problems etc but it's too resolved in the end. The only things that saves this film are the performances of Jay Hernadez and Kristen Dunst and John Stockwell visual flair for L.A.
Loved it! January 28, 2008
I love this movie-the music is awesome-Kirsten is of course fierce fun and nothing but a hippy girl. I adore this movie because of the raw-ness and realness. The soundtrack is superb some would be suprised by it, not an emmy winner movie but it is a great one to keep on hand.
Not the typical teen love movie in many ways January 6, 2008
So I am in my mid twenties but still love most teeny bopper movies- actually not still- since I hated them when I myself was a Teen but I really enjoy them now because their full of sweet clean cut (even when it involves sex) love. However, this movie has no passion, nothing to make me see how these two fell in love, and no "ah" factor. It simply involved a girl who drank, used drugs, and was out of control and a boy who was a real straight arrow. Unlike most films the rich and White female was the one out of control (in more ways than one) while the poor and minority male was the straight arrow- refreshing. Yet this is where the refreshness ends. While most of these type of movies have two opposites falling for each other in this case they were two polar opposites and their "love" seemed shallow- based on teenage hormones that ran rampant on both ends (though more so on hers.) Don't waste ur money. By the way I gave this film a two because I was about to turn it off when it got better though did not exceed much- therefore I give the first third a 1 and the rest a 3. Don't waste ur money- if you can get it for free or on Encore (where I saw it) and you have the time to waste (like I did) then go ahead.

I just watched this movie for the 5th time. I first saw it when in my mid-thirties. I don't ever feel compelled to watch many movies more than once, but this is a super love story. If you like romance, you'll love it.
