San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleMay 17, 2017

VarietyJay WeissbergMay 2, 2017
Boasting a deliriously loquacious script together with a rare understanding of how to balance certain Italian caricatures with a grounding sense of realism – a combination that’s truly Virzì’s forte – the film takes two psychologically damaged women...and makes them into a mutually supportive duo who surprisingly touch our emotions.

Like Crazy seems content to coast on the contrast between Beatrice's abrasive energy and Donatella's quiet anguish, with neither character developed with depth sufficient to justify the time we spend with them. Read full review

Slant MagazineKeith WatsonMay 1, 2017
Restless, at times even chaotic, the film often seems to be replicating the experience of having a manic episode. Read full review
