Crazy / Beautiful
"Dunst And Hernandez Sizzle!" -Us Weekly
When fate steps in and brings together two high school seniors from opposite sides of the track, it's something Crazy / Beautiful in this sexy, fun and energetic story of first love. Nicole (Kirsten Dunst, Bring It On) is the 17-year-old troubled daughter of a wealthy congressman who never met a rule she didn't break. Carlos (hot newcomer Jay Hernandez) is an A-student with big dreams who endures a two-hour bus ride every morning to attend high school in an upscale L.A. neighborhood. Their innocent flirtations quickly develop into passionate love, but Nicole's self-destructive behavior threatens their relationship and puts Carlos' promising future in jeopardy. Will their intense passion keep them together despite the objections of their families or will Carlos be forced to plan his future...without Nicole? Surprises lie at every turn in this wildly seductive and critically acclaimed drama.

Okay movie - Mano
Dunst does a great job and so does Hernandez. This young kid ( at that time) clearly showed promise and it seems to have paid off well for Dunst. Her Cannes award recently is a testimony.
Hidden story line includes her mother's death and the taboo of mentall illness.
Pressures of inter racial romance has been done many times over. But this does a good job.
Easy watching.Good Rental - kav2001c
Hard working Carlos takes two hour bus rides everyday just to get to school
His entire life has been planned out for him
Until he meets Nicole
He loves her but she almost ends up ruining his life
Well done film dealing with societal clashes (with racial undertones) as it tries to define what makes some people just click with each other
Well worth the rentalGood movie - Vickie
This is a good movie. Kirsten Dunst does a great job playing a teenager with severe emotional hang-ups. The relationships and the acting involved were really good. However, I think they played up the poor little rich girl a little too much and it would have been nice to see her put a bra on at least once during the movie, instead of letting it all hang.
