Critic Reviews

A delicious comedy that starts out promisingly as a pleasant gag comedy but then turns unexpectedly into a bright social satire.Full Review

Edward Guthmann
San Francisco Chronicle

Handsome as all Allen films are, and it proceeds with the brisk, sophisticated air of throwaway confidence and lack of pretense that we expect from the contemporary master of grown-up comedy.Full Review

Kevin Thomas
Los Angeles Times

The Woodman has recovered his common touch. On him, it looks good.Full Review

Peter Travers
Rolling Stone

Breezy, enjoyable romp gratifyingly zigzags in directions that aren't apparent at the outset and features some intriguingly personal subtext for longtime Woody watchers.Full Review

Todd McCarthy
Variety

In this sweet, funny wisp of a movie, Mr. Allen shucks off his fabled angst and returns in spirit to those wide-eyed days of yesteryear, before Chekhov, Kafka and Ingmar Bergman invaded his creative imagination.Full Review
