Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
This is a deeply self-critical film about immaturity and the gift of real love. Many films can be said to put an epitaph on the decade, but few remain as relevant.

Woody Allen's great leap forward into character development and dramatic integrity.

Allen has, in black and white, captured the inner beauty that lurks behind the outer layer of dirt and grime in Manhattan.

Manhattan is not just Woody Allen's dream movie. Wistful as it is witty, it's his dream of the movies.

fresh:
Allen serves up a nostalgia that was utterly of its time; he incarnates an idea of the city that, even now, remains as strong as its reality and refracts his disappointed ideals into high existential crises.
