'Crazy as Hell' leaves viewers with something to think about after the screen goes dead and the house-lights come on.

This dramatically shaky contest of wills only reiterates the old Hollywood saw: Evil is interesting and good is boring.

Top Critic A great ending doesn't make up for a weak movie, and Crazy as Hell doesn't even have a great ending.

A bit too derivative to stand on its own as the psychological thriller it purports to be.

Top Critic A psychological thriller that doesn't really hold up if you think about it too much, but is nonetheless highly entertaining in a low-budget, David Lynch-ian way.

Despite its flaws, Crazy as Hell marks an encouraging new direction for La Salle.

So much about the film is loopy and ludicrous ... that it could have been a hoot in a bad-movie way if the laborious pacing and endless exposition had been tightened.

An allegory concerning the chronically mixed signals African American professionals get about overachieving could be intriguing, but the supernatural trappings only obscure the message.

Top Critic Perhaps no picture ever made has more literally showed that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
