LIKE CRAZY | FAMILY MOVIE REVIEW INFORMATION FOR PARENTS AND KIDS

"LIKE CRAZY"
(2011) (Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones) (PG-13)

QUICK TAKE:
Drama: Two college graduates try to carry on a long-distance relationship.

PLOT:
Jacob (ANTON YELCHIN) and Anna (FELICITY JONES) are students in Los Angeles who begin a romantic relationship, but then find themselves in a quandary. She's supposed to spend the summer with her parents, Jackie (ALEX KINGSTON) and Bernard (OLIVER MUIRHEAD), back in England, while he'll remain stateside. She decides to risk violating her student visa, a decision that comes back to haunt them as once she does return to London, she's not allowed to re-enter America.
As a result, the two try to carry on a long-distance relationship after graduation while getting on with their lives where he builds furniture in the U.S. and she takes a writing job for a magazine across the pond. Although they occasionally see each other when he visits, their time apart results in him falling for his assistant, Samantha (JENNIFER LAWRENCE), while Anna ends up having a relationship with Simon (CHARLIE BEWLEY).
With time passing by, Jacob and Anna must decide if and how they can resolve their situation and whether they're meant to be together.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
Some teens might be drawn in by the love story, but unless that's true and/or they're fans of someone in the cast, it doesn't seem like this will be a big draw.

WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13
For sexual content and brief strong language.
