  Stir Crazy: Chicago Reader Restaurants: Restaurant Raters' Comments   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-08)
The one drawback is that their tofu was awful; unlike the other stir fry places Stir Crazy's version was rubbery and possessed a strange soap-like taste.
Stir Crazy, in my mind, is the best of the "create your own" stir fry places scattered throughout the Chicago area.
The atmosphere is smoky (from the stir fry grill) and the people tend to be a little on the North Shore snotty side, but Stir Crazy is a good place to go with a few people before a movie at Northbrook Court or after a full day of shopping.

 Stir Crazy
This movie could have been a 5 star but alas is let down by a bland one hour ending.
In STIR CRAZY, their best film in my opinion, the two play an actor and a playwright from New York who decide to head out west to look for work.
STIR CRAZY would not be the last nail in Gene Wilder's film career hammered by Sidney Poitier.

 T. Rex's Movie Reviews Page
This movie turns out to be exactly what one might think it was from the trailers - a underground ripoff of Armageddon that has a weaker plot, weaker effects and a weaker cast, but still remains watchable if you are into disaster movies.
This movie tries to be much more than it is, but it ends up being a pretentious take on the differences between men and women and what it's like for young people to date.
At times, the movie seems to almost have a documentary feel, which is added to by the fl and white and poor quality of footage.

 DVDFILE.COM: Stir Crazy review
I can still remember when I was but a wee lad, watching this movie on HBO in a hotel room, hoping that my parents would not come back and catch me watching this "dirty" R rated movie.
This was back during the time that HBO seemed to only have rights to three movies: Flash Gordon, 9 to 5, and Stir Crazy.
(Strangely enough, I just saw a trailer for a new movie in which this same exact joke is used.) To amuse themselves Skip and Harry sit in a bar and share their misery.

It had as stink of infamy that is brought up every time a movie goes wildly over budget (Titanic, Waterworld etc.).
I was surprised to see that the film had a great cast and they hold up their end of the bargain.
The problem with this movie, which details the Johnston County Wars of 1890, is its lack of focus.

 JoBlo's Movie Club - VIDEO CAPSULE: Stir Crazy (7.5/10)
I was nervous about seeing this movie again for the first time in over 10 years cause it used to be one of my favorite comedies as a teen.
Well, I'm happy to report that YES, the movie does stand the test of time and I was realy happy to see that at least one of my faves from the 80s still did.
Gene Wilder is hilariously funny in this movie as the happy-go-lucky guy who never really comes to grips with the reality of his dire situation.

 Stir Crazy - Review - Prior and Wilder Are Superb
To be fair, this movie would have been absolutely useless were it not for the considerable comic talents of its two stars.
Generally, apart from Wilder and Prior the acting here is abysmal and the lack of originality does nothing to aid its case.
The plot is weak, the script is dire and generally, were it not for the two leads it would have been a big no-no. As it stands, its a three star movie, worth watching on its television release, but certainly not worth buying or renting.

The campaign focuses on two distinct audiences: the local media and consumers with the overall project goal of announcing the upcoming opening of Stir Crazy's first restaurant in the city.
To address the needs of the local media and win them over as advocates of the restaurant, special press kit folders were designed that explained Stir Crazy's unique concept of serving contemporary, Pan Asian noodle and stir-fry dishes and announcing the upcoming opening.

 Stir crazy -- and hungry for revenge
These films launch a kind of assault on the audience, and it isn't surprising to learn that Tarantino was head of the 2004 Cannes jury that awarded this picture the Grand Prix.
The critical take is divided, with one school citing Jacobean revenge tragedy and contending the movie bares the depths of the human heart, while another, perhaps larger group says "Oldboy" is just sadistic and perverse.
Whichever side you take, you will be impressed, or appalled, by such bits of virtuoso violence as the sequence when Dae-su, armed with a hammer, and with a knife sticking out of his back, takes on a corridor full of vicious enemies.
