Reviews for Hannah and Her Sisters
Filled with tart observations and clever asides on the warps of contemporary culture.
03/27/04
A dramatic comedy not quite like any other, and one that sets new standards for Mr. Allen as well as for all American movie makers.
05/20/03
Top CriticRomantic sentiments...drive all the lust--and blood--out of the picture.
10/19/01
Its plot has the elegant geometry of a Philip Barry play.
11/21/08
Top CriticHannah is a masterpiece, a triumph of aesthetic balances like nothing the writer-director achieved previously or since, and a pinnacle of American moviemaking.
08/17/03
Allen's writing and directing style is so strong and assured in this film that the actual filmmaking itself becomes a narrative voice, just as we sense Henry James behind all of his novels, or William Faulkner or Iris Murdoch behind theirs.
01/01/00
Top CriticAnother masterpiece.
04/18/01
Achieves the kind of perfect balance that comes along maybe once in a filmmaker's career.
05/26/04
This movie feels real, the people seem real and the situations all ring true.
07/28/06
Allen's way of setting himself up as a fount of moral wisdom is as insufferable as ever, but at least the preachiness is alleviated by some genuine wit.
10/10/07
Top Critic[Allen] treats each character with affection and good judgment as he deals with their weaknesses and sad-eyed smiles.
01/27/02
A very insightful, very entertaining movie.
09/10/02
The tangled web of relationships is very effectively done, but just as affecting is Allen's portrayal of the city he loves.
10/14/09
Sharply written and extremely well-acted, Allen's serio-comic ensemble-driven saga about one large neurotic family, a huge artistic and commercial hit at the time, is arguably his last great picture.
02/28/08
Like many films in the Allen oeuvre, the plot plays second fiddle to the issues. Which is not to say there is no story. There is. But it’s more a slice of life.
01/01/00
An unequivocal classic
10/14/01
One of Woody's best ever; a highly intelligent and witty comedy with a magical script and perfect portrayls of well rounded characters.
10/10/07
A showcase of great acting.
02/28/02
Hannah is the New York of competitive living and, as such, it’s as true a city portrait as they come.
