More to the point, L.A. Story is giddy fun.

Narratively, this crazy-grid comedy is slighter than a plate of California cuisine, but what it lacks in solid bulk it more than makes up for in its neon array of oddball cultural colors. Feb 8, 2017 | Full Review…

This is a very personal Martin project -- the sweet-souled, nonstop-funny testament of a native Angeleno. Sly and soulful, it's the comedy that dares to be dippy. Feb 2, 2009 | Full Review…

Like Mr. Martin himself, L.A. Story seems basically decent, intelligent and sweet. It's a fanciful romantic comedy whose wildest and craziest notion is that Los Angeles, for all of its eccentricities, is a great place to live. May 20, 2003

Unlike Woody Allen's New York City, which becomes a staging area for character angst and transformation, Martin's L.A. stifles the characters, and neither they, screenwriter Martin or director Jackson seem to be aware of it. Feb 2, 2009 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Perhaps Steve Martin's hair went white because his brain radiates with such boundless invention that all the pigment withered off the follicles. Feb 10, 2006 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review…
