Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

mariana zarpellon Eccentric characters and a good story lost in the hands of unskillful producers. It slips from the main story several times with useless details and exhausts the viewer with repeated photos and newspaper cuts. That said, nothing spoils it more than the inconvenient and abnormal use of music - it forces the mood and muffles the speeches, giving the video an amateurish air. The draggy pace at which the interesting bits are told made the one hour and thirty- two minutes feel like an eternity. The two main characters aren't well explored and, along with all others, seem to be way too conducted by the questions being made.

gavin6942 The bizarre true story of Linda Riss and Burt Pugach.Manohla Dargis of the New York Times called the film "somewhat sickening, mildly gonzo" and added, "Crazy Love takes a mildly hyperventilated approach to its subject; there's a hint of tabloid sensationalism, a splash of kitsch sentimentalism." This is all very true and it is just an incredible story overall, bringing in William Kunstler, the Attica Riot, and other events in the history of New York. Was this a story that will make the history books? No. But it is among the strangest true crime stories ever to occur, and luckily somewhat was clever enough to track down all the interested parties for posterity.

SanFernandoCurt Wow! This film is so full of laugh-out-loud moments it's almost a comedy. And that left me rattled long after it was over, and I'd reconsidered the zany goings-on of a self-made millionaire lawyer maiming the beautiful woman who scorned him. BLINDED HER! Ooo. Hell hath no fury like an officer of the court told to go fly a kite. Then, years later, they get back together and tie the knot. Marry! ("Prison really muscled him up.") And THEN... long after that... he's accused of cheating on her with another woman, who he plots to kill after SHE dumps him. His infamies aren't crimes of passion. They're very, very bad habits! Part of the appeal is the setting - NOO Yawk nouveau riche - and the stunning scope of the story, spanning late-'50s to present (the unfortunate female, Linda Riss, was splashed with acid in 1959, the crime committed by thugs hired by her erstwhile lover, attorney Burt Pagach).But in the hands of the filmmakers, Pagach's astoundingly atrocious behavior is practically laughed off as a charming eccentricity. Or... maybe... the producers were as dumbfounded charting these two bizarre people as I was watching them. At times, Pagach is portrayed as almost romantically valiant. "He could still see the beauty in her," one of their gossipy friends says in a tone very close to admiration. Other talking heads (they provide some of the biggest laughs in the film) include legendary journalist Jimmy Breslin, who pronounces Pagach "insane". Bingo, Jimmy.The pop-song soundtrack grounds the proceedings in specific eras, although the choice of Elvis' "Burning Love" over the final credits is tasteless. And, yes, an irresistible choice.

teiver1 This is a great documentary about real events. I was fascinated by the story and that this could really happen. For me the story is very sad and horrific at times ..Pugash I guess got what he wanted in the end. Linda was such a lovely young woman with her whole life ahead of her and he ruined it. After the incident and what happened here eyes, her fiancé left her and other men ran a mile when she took off her glasses. This also tells a story.. ans asks the question , what really is Love? By her fiancés point of view very fickle but thats easy for me to say. But true love is love that is more than just about looks. As for Pugash IMO hes a very self centered person insane and still is. Linda has become very hardened at what happened to her and I don't blame her. She probably realized in her late 30s that she would end up alone, blind and lonely. Thats the reason shes with Pugash now as far as i'm concerned.One loose end about the film was what happened to Pugashs poor handicapped daughter and 1st wife Maxine....
