Philadelphia Inquirer Carrie Rickey
Buoyed by the appealing Hart and Grenier.
San Francisco Examiner Wesley Morris
An impressively competent "how will male teen star get with female teen star at high school dance?" romance.
Read Full Review >Mr. Showbiz Kevin Maynard
The appealing cast makes the most of the derivative story.
Chicago Tribune Mark Caro
An innocuous teen film.
Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
Slight and sweet, not a great high school movie but kinda nice, with appealing performances by Hart and Grenier.
Read Full Review >Dallas Observer Luke Y. Thompson
Actually quite agreeable, but only because of a group of actors who are able to salvage the paper-thin material.
Read Full Review >Film.com Tom Keogh
Doesn't go the distance in either story or style, unwilling to liberate itself from real or presumed expectations about what it takes to sell a movie featuring teenagers.
Read Full Review >San Francisco Chronicle Mick LaSalle
Succeeds in its modest way because its stars, Melissa Joan Hart and Adrian Grenier, are pleasant to be around.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Lawrence Van Gelder
When it comes to an ending, Drive Me Crazy offers no surprises, but it arrives there in amiable, sensible style.
Read Full Review >Miami Herald Phoebe Flowers
That it manages a certain air of likability is due solely to the considerable charms of Grenier.
New York Post Jonathan Foreman
Recycles the teen romantic comedies of the last few years...and it's easily the worst of the lot.
USA Today Mike Clark
A minimally tolerable excuse to splice one or two perfunctory scenes between song cues.
Los Angeles Times Robin Rauzi
Like the song, the movie is bouncy and catchy but disposable pop material.
Read Full Review >Washington Post Desson Thomson
Enough to make any thinking person want to shoot a hole in the screen.
Read Full Review >TNT RoughCut Christopher Brandon
A poor excuse to put out a soundtrack of teen pop songs.
LA Weekly Paul Cullum
Nothing in this craven exercise... will register in the memory for longer than the walk back to the car.
Read Full Review >New York Daily News Jack Mathews
Isn't a movie as much as it is a feature-length screen test.
Read Full Review >Austin Chronicle Sarah Hepola
The goal of Drive Me Crazy is simple: to sell tickets by selling fantasy.
Read Full Review >Seattle Post-Intelligencer Paula Nechak
So badly plotted and written that it rarely makes much sense, even with the elementary story line.

It's an easy movie but the story is about the lives all boys and girls lead. it's perfect and of course chase is really cute.
Erin S. gave it a 10:
This is the best movie ever! It's one of those movies that will be stuck in your head until you force it out of your mind and then it comes back in 10 minutes. Everyone HAS to see this movie. It's a classic story.Geek and Prep fall in love.
Naomi H. gave it a 10:
I was friends with Elizabeth Hart and it was nice to see her and her sister appear together. They have worked hard for it...
Yoon C. gave it a 7:
Cliched, banal, and so forth. But, the leads, especially the female, perform their roles with true dedication and isn't that what's best and most precious about youth? Believing in one's own dreams? Decent teen movie, far superior to most.
