Fresh
Although the film, much like its protagonist and his piano playing, lacks a certain passion, its stylistic structure and execution are coolly flawless.
Raven Snook, Time Out New York
Rotten
In Allegro, the past is a shadowy night town whose geography is continually rearranging itself.
Stephen Holden, New York Times
Rotten
Like its gifted, but emotionally frigid, pianist hero, Allegro is filled with technical virtuosity but short on real feeling.
Leslie Felperin, Variety
Rotten
Writer-director Christoffer Boe takes himself very, very seriously. Me, not so much.
Nathan Lee, Village Voice
