Might have been better off in a kid's-size portion as a short. Go to Full Review Chuck Bowen Slant Magazine 03/14/2013

It's eventually obvious that Cory McAbee mistakenly believes that his characters' resolutely dull adventures speak for themselves. Go to Full Review Zachary Wigon Village Voice 03/12/2013
Clocking in at just 51 minutes, Crazy and Thief nevertheless could have been a great deal shorter. Go to Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens 11/26/2019
A light and lilting narrative at the 2012 Los Angeles Film Festival that just steals my heart is Crazy & Thief, an instant charmer that will make you heart smile and have you grinning from ear to ear. Go to Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com 07/24/2019
Crazy and Thief is an hour long musical fantasy that may try your patience if you aren't particularly fond of watching aimless children or experimental nepotism. Go to Full Review David Noh Film Journal International 03/15/2013
There's no reason in the world why this father's loving tribute to his own two kids should be as uncannily riveting or delightful as it is. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

03/13/2014 really enjoyed it, Cory McAbee's got a real good brain. See more 03/13/2013 At first it seems a simple and indulgent film. However, it gathers pace and is winningly acted. It is a groundbreaking film in its use of children and it pays worthy and unusual attention to them. We are presented with a child's view of the world in gorgeous images, and lingering scenes. Editing, music and script make this another winner for visionary auteur, McAbee (Stingray Sam). Clever and fun. A gem. See more 06/20/2012 Bit cute for a while. Huge pacing issues, awful music, and general lack of interest--walked out. See more Read all reviews
