I read a lot of bad reviews for this movie and I am glad I did not listen to them. I was a little nervous when I read that the character becomes clinically insane but I was happy to see that he was so much more than that.Although Charlie definitely "went mad" with jealously, he was essentially harmless and was only hurting himself. He did not do anything violent or over the top crazy in my opinion. He was a victim of crippling paranoia which caused him to quickly jump to wild conclusions and then act on them. I found myself laughing a lot and also feeling sorry for him, I was never afraid or creeped out by him. I thought the chemistry between the two main characters was great and I was definitely rooting for them the whole time. I wish there had been more happy moments between them before things got awkward. I am glad that she forgave him and accepted him for who he is in the end and that he was able to become better because of her. I struggled with OCD and paranoia for most of my early life, so maybe that is why I was able to relate to him more. I really liked his loyal best friend in the movie and I love the quote at the end that said "since Charlie's condition would never fully disappear, he would always remain just crazy enough to keep things interesting." I thought that was very profound.

Matt Le Blanc stars in this quirky, subdued romantic comedy which is not as clever or funny as it thinks it is. At some point is can be excruciatingly embarrassing.Matt is Charlie Darby a popular elementary school principal who goes bat nut crazy when he falls in love. Then he is possessed with insane jealousy and paranoia which leads to disastrous results.Ali Larter is Molly his latest flame but she too is dismayed by his behaviour but can she ease him through his problems? Adam Rodriguez plays the patient and supportive best friend. Chevy Chase pops up as a porn addicted neighbour.The film is certainly left field and Matt and Ali make nice couple but the insane jealous scenes just does not work as a comedy but it has enough charm to keep you watching.

Movie goers don't often have the opportunity to analyze and experience what being in love is truly like; the entertainment industry folks create this grand, pretty picture however, being in love is actually a torturous process! LOVESICK is an accurate and funny journey. We actually can relate to the lunacy of wanting someone so badly that we appear manic. I'm rather disappointed that fans have so implement a lengthy search for quality programming. I hope to see more of this. Especially enjoyable were character actors, travel imagery and over the top dialogue. Additionally there were the random cuts which added to the fun. And also (don't start a sentence with "and"), musical score is marvelous. Thank you Lovesick, I will watch again. I hope to find the DVD on Amazon. YES, I'm still watching DVDs.

Greetings again from the darkness. If you have been looking for proof that there is a difference between "crazy in love" and "crazy and in love", this first feature film from director Luke Matheny (God of Love, Live action short film Oscar winner in 2011) should end your search. It's also a return to the big screen for Matt LeBlanc, who, despite an extremely successful TV career ("Friends", "Episodes"), has never quite clicked with movie goers.Mr. LeBlanc stars as Charlie Darby, an energetic elementary school principal beloved by his students and liked by everyone … except those with whom he falls in love. In what comes across as a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde syndrome, Charlie's charms and romantic notions make it easy for him to connect. But once he falls, a psychotic reaction occurs within his brain and he becomes sociopathically jealous and paranoid and worried sick about things that might happen and things he has imagined to have happened. Charlie's love reactions are played for laughs, but there is also a sense of sadness and danger that is left unexplored.Writer Dean Young ("King of the Hill") goes for the conventional approach despite Charlie's unconventional affliction. The laughs are small rather than guffaws, and LeBlanc's genuine likability makes us pull for him to break free from this socially crippling behavior. Adam Rodriguez ("CSI: Miami") plays Jason, Charlie's very supportive best friend, and the narrator of the story. His character provides what little insight we get into what happens to Charlie. Ali Larter plays Molly, the most recent object of desire for Charlie. Larter and LeBlanc are very good together, but that doesn't ease the awkwardness of Charlie's reactionary ways.Other supporting work is provided by Chevy Chase, as Charlie's lonely porn-addicted neighbor (a glimpse at Charlie's future?); Kristen Johnston as an ex-girlfriend and counselor trying to help; the always funny Rachael Harris as a vile and disgusting Charlie date; and the wonderful Connie Sawyer as Nana Bebe. If you are unfamiliar with Ms. Sawyer, she recently turned 102 years old and has appeared as Mrs. Sullivan in a couple of "Ray Donovan" episodes, plus most every seminal TV series since the 1960's (except, ironically, "Friends").Most will find the movie likable … just like its star. It's best if you not expect a story with an edge or any real insight into human nature or relationships. The screwball musical score is enough to remind us that the film is not taking a serious approach to Charlie's psychotic affliction, yet it does remind us that we all go a bit crazy when we fall in love – let's just hope that it's not a Charlie-type crazy.
