i wanted to like this movie,and i really tied.but in the end,i just couldn't justify it.it's billed as a comedy,except it's not funny.or even amusing.i will say that the two lead actors,Daryl Hannah and Dudley Moore are appealing,as are their characters.but the movie is just too slow and talky for my tastes.and there's also too much swearing for no good reason.it doesn't add anything to the movie,and it doesn't really have any relevance.the movie has an ensemble cast of well knowns from the time period(in this case,1990),but they can't save this movie.it's not quite horrible,but it certainly isn't very good,either.for me,Crazy people is a 3.5/10

[Possible spoilers] The general plot is that an advertiser, Emory (Dudley Moore), is sent to a lunatic asylum. His work is exposed and everyone loves the advertisements, so he does his work with the other patients inside the asylum and is a hit. You have to watch the rest to find out what happens! I like the story, and I find it even sad at some stages. 7/10

Top-notch advertiser Dudley Moore is committed to an insane asylum after he comes up with some whacked campaigns for famous products. However his work is accidently exposed and everyone loves the new advertisements. Thus the agency convinces Moore to come up with more ideas with the help of the other patients at the institution. Daryl Hannah, J.T. Walsh and Paul Reiser are good in supporting turns. The film is a hit-and-miss comedy that has some really great moments, but in the end there is just nothing really above average when all is completed. 2.5 out of 5 stars.

This film is worth watching for one reason and one reason only. George Cartelli, a man who hasn't said anything but hello since 1977. Fantastic. Usually, for me at least, Dudley Moore would make a good second reason, but he's lumbered with a decidedly saggy script, and is inevitably outdone by George. Hello.
