Miami Herald Rene Rodriguez
An exuberant, disarming entertainment.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) Rick Groen
The reality measures up to the rep.
Empire Liz Beardsworth
Fantastic performances, sharp wit and a raw honesty breathe new life into the rites-of-passage drama.
Read Full Review >The Hollywood Reporter Michael Rechtshaffen
Although Vallee's remarkably assured film, which clocks in at more than two hours, proves that it's possible to have too much of a good thing, Canada's official Oscar submission for best foreign-language feature still manages keep up the entertaining yet emotionally satisfying pace sufficiently to earn audience accolades.
Read Full Review >Variety Jay Weissberg
The whole family can feel comfortable watching C.R.A.Z.Y., Jean-Marc Vallee's bouncy coming-of-age tale that coasts along on a terrific soundtrack and a spot-on feel for period detail. Story of a tight-knit Catholic family and their sexually confused son never goes near anything that might make mainstream auds uncomfortable, sticking with an old-fashioned tone balanced by inventive lensing that gives only the illusion of dipping its toe in risky waters.

D gave it a9:
C.R.A.Z.Y. is a gorgeous, heartfelt, yet utterly unsetimental gem of a film. An uplifting, coming of age story that will completely enrapture even those who hate uplifting coming of age stories (me included), C.R.A.Z.Y. is brilliantly acted, taughtly written and unexpectedly epic. A wonderful movie experience that can be forgiven for being a little bit safe.
James S. gave it a10:
Living in Quebec I , of course, recognize much in this film. But it is not a Quebec story; it is universal. This is about as warm and honest as a film can get. You sense the love that this project sprang from and is full of. This is a film truly for all. Cathartic.
