Rolling Stone
"As a filmmaker, Allen has grappled with the temptations of repeating himself instead of forging a fresh path. You can feel that conflict here, and watching him work it out is exhilarating."
Daily Telegraph
"It's far too ponderous. Still, it's not wholly terrible, and that's not something you can say about Allen's films very often these days."
