While many of the segments amuse, and rarely wear out their welcome (the average running time is eight minutes apiece), it rapidly becomes apparent that each of them has some kind of twist, like an O Henry short story.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
It's a bit too arty, and a bit too cute, but it charms and cajoles with the pluck of a native New Yorker.
The project is lush and seductive as a whole, though some segments are especially vibrant.
Because so many of the segments are about young lovers, the standouts involve people past their prime.
The film only feels like two or three different sort of approaches are represented. They don't really feel like widely different attacks on the material.
