The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The movie starts out interesting enough. An ordinary man named Bob jumps the Camp David fence in his underwear in order "to get on the 11 o'clock news." Instead he's thrown into a mental asylum and threatens to commit suicide when the doctor tells him he will never be famous. He's given a heavy sedative and is knocked out cold. I get all that. After this moment, the film turns into "A Beautiful Mind" type movie because you're never sure if what Bob is going through is real or imagined. I guess it doesn't matter because when the story surprisingly veers off into an escape to assassinate Bin Laden, you're hooked. Full of laughs, adventure, and conflicted characters, what keeps you paying attention is to find out if all the people Bob encounters is real or just a dream. This is an unusual low budget movie as it takes on such a big story. But except for some minor flaws, Crazy Famous manages to pull it off.

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!

This was a really an enjoyable movie with a great premise... an average guy (Bob) obsessed with being famous. I think a lot of people can relate. The only difference is Bob humorously tries everything and anything to be famous without success - - his last attempt gets him committed to a mental hospital. About ready to give up on his lifelong dream, he meets other patients - - one who believes he's a British secret agent (Smith) who claims that Bin Laden is still alive and hiding in upstate New York. Funny stuff watching Bob and a group of mental patients escape the hospital in a wild journey that is surprisingly heartwarming in an effort to help Bob find fame. Story was interesting, acting was excellent, and the production value for an indie film rivals any movie you would see in a theater. The movie is short in duration, but it's a fun time nonetheless.
