3.0 out of 5 stars Darian or Adrian?, June 20, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Crush [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I just watched this recently and was shocked to find out they changed Alicia Silverstone's character's name in the movie and searched high and low to find out why. I found this bit of trivia at IMDB. In case you were wondering..."When "The Crush" was edited for TV, Alicia Silverstone's character's name changed from Darian to Adrian. Screenwriter Alan Shapiro had based the film on actual events that happened to him, and ended up being sued by the girl he wrote about, who had the same name as his "fictional" character!"

5.0 out of 5 stars 'The Crush' is an excellent thriller!, May 21, 2000

By	Shaun (South Bend, Indiana) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Crush [VHS] (VHS Tape)

As a die hard Alicia Silverstone fanatic, I bought 'The Crush' with high hopes. Although harrassed by the critics, a shocking discovery was placed on my hands: it's an excellent movie. Sexual obsession and childish innocence form as one, creating Darian (Silverstone). Nick (Elwes), realizing the harm headed his way when Darian reveals her "crush", gets caught up in a violent swirl of events that lead to the ultimate finale in which Silverstone's acting abilities shine through. 'The Crush' was no waste of cash and the movie cover is to DIE for! Those glasses...those pouting lips...that evil glare. For true excitement, rent 'The Crush' today.

4.0 out of 5 stars Silverstone's Amazing Debut!, February 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Crush (1993) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The Crush is an excellent film mainly because of the very talented Alicia Silverstone. This was her first film?! She steals every single scene she's in with movie star magnatism. This film is much more interesting to watch than either Fatal Attraction or Single White Female, in fact, they don't even compare. Do NOT miss The Crush!
