At the age of 79, Woody Allen is still a formidable filmmaker ("Blue Jasmine" was just two years ago). But he is also, inevitably, Woody Allen.
Tom Long, Detroit News

It works, more or less; the three central actors are all terrific, particularly Posey, who finds something vulnerable and touching in Rita. But you watch it thinking of other, better Allen movies ...
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

In the end, this feeble effort remains tainted, however unfairly, by the creator's personal life. Maybe Allen should have titled it "Rationalizing Man."
Peter Keough, Boston Globe

While it doesn't quite succeed, it's a mournful meditation too sharp and smart to dislike.
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
