It's really little more than a single anecdote, but an anecdote so full of mirrors, so magically placed, that the film manages to reflect the future while also revealing new interpretations of the past.

Vincent Canby, New York Times

There's little here you haven't seen in other artists' summer reminiscences. But there's something delicate and magical about this particular season, probably because of the knowledge that you are tapping directly into Bergman's childhood.

Desson Thomson, Washington Post

A good movie.

Ingmar Bergman's days behind the camera may be over, but he apparently still has a worthwhile story or two left to tell.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews

Immensely sympathetic, viewed either as a self-contained work or as part of the Bergman canon, it is written by Ingmar and directed by his son Daniel.
