Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

tieman64 "Crazy on the Outside" is an unwatchable comedy directed by and starring US comedian Tim Allen.Notable only for a minor role by actress Sigourney Weaver, the film is an awkward mixture of flat jokes, terrible writing and dated directorial choices. Odder still is the way the film's plot and aesthetics clash. Allen thinks he's making a chirpy children's flick, but his content says otherwise (lots of sex toys, heavy soul searching etc). It's an R rated movie that's been squeezed into a PG13 wrapper, a schizoid style which is perhaps due to Allen's uncertainty as to what type of audience he'd like to target and pander to.1/10 - Worth no viewings.

Matt_Layden After being released from prison, Tommy must cope with his family, his new job, his desire to follow in his father's footsteps and of course, not getting himself thrown back into prison. This film has an impressive cast, first you have Tim Allen, whom I find funny. His sister is a compulsive liar, played by Sigourney Weaver. She is married to J.K. Simmons, who has a beef with Allen. They lie to the grandmother, saying Allen went to France for 3 years, instead of prison. He went to prison because his best friend is in some illegal shady business work, this is Ray Liotta. Allen also goes to find his old flame, the girl he loved before he went to prison, played by the funny Julie Bowen. She has a fiancée, played by Kelsey Grammar. Finally Jeanne Tripplehorn plays Allen's parole officer. Those are the players, and even though all of them have had success in the past with their comedy chops, they all seem to be flat here. Bowen, in my opinion, as the funniest role as the girlfriend who wants to marry Grammar, while see Allen on the side. Allen himself seems too distracted here, this is most likely because he was directing this as well. He went for a more likable schmuck role than a funny one. Weaver, as the compulsive liar, steals every scene she is in. Every lie she comes up with his more outrageous than the next. The problem with the film is that it was more kind hearted than funny. A lot of the story elements are clichéd and predictable. Which takes the fun out of the film. One of the things I look forward to in comedies is the unexpected, this film throws nothing like that our way. The film had potential, and it means well, but it leaves an unsatisfied taste in your mouth. A lot of the film is just mediocre and given the amount of talent behind this one, it falls short.

not_u_h When i saw the poster of the movie i thought this is what i want to watch a relaxing And a hilarious movie . but it was so much far of any doubt i had before . the acting is so slow and very emotionally poor I could not even tell if this is movie is a comedy or dramatic .. So i stopped watching it after only 16 minutes i just wasted my money and i cant even waste my precious time on it ..if u like the slow progress story.. a cold and none sense acting watch this ......!!.. i can only admit that the story is Little bit interesting but it got in the wrong hands . the acting and the direction was too bad even the sound affect is not attractive .it made me sleepy .the movie also misses the element of the surprise .. as the story is new and the title is Crazy outside.. i only could see a normal people and behavior . even the scene if kidnapping was not too much ..the music did not help the scene .

destruk-830-818397 90 minutes with three chuckles, this film fails to provide much entertainment. JK Simmons is actually the best actor in the film and he gets a bunch of one-liners. This movie's target audience is one who requires all their thinking to be done for them - the 1:20 is simply wishy washy everything goes my way type of thing for Allen, then he gets a very minor problem at 80 minutes in, and has 10 minutes to make it right. Just in case you weren't paying attention we get a zoom in up close and personal with writing on the screen to tell us to pay attention to this problem - it is stuck in your face so deep you can't miss it. You will come away from this movie remembering 3 things and that's all - it could have been a 10 minute infomercial rather than this POS.
