Altman thrusts upon the audience the responsibility of connecting the dots. But the dots don't connect, and instead of the resolution that generally follows tension, there is a feeling of having missed something.
Kenneth LaFave, Arizona Republic
Rotten
It neither adores nor disapproves of its players, which leaves the moviegoer a little clueless, and unmoved.
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

The measured pace of The Company could tax the patience of some, but the dancing is so well executed, and so energetic, that only the most dance-averse members of the audience would likely object.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star

A love letter to performers who put their egos and bodies on the line.
