Licorice Pizza Ratings & Reviews
Filmspotting
Adam Kempenaar
Theres a looseness a dreaminess, an illogic to how it all unfolds and meanders that is somehow still incredibly authentic.
Reverse Shot
Christina Newland
Licorice Pizza takes an arm's-length embrace of nostalgia. Anderson doesn't turn a blind eye to reality-he heightens it, weighting it with meaning, reflecting the romance of hindsight and adolescent abandon.
The Reveal
Scott Tobias
Anderson and Haim, with her sharp-elbowed and funny yet soulful performance, capture the flailing, directionless condition of being a woman in her mid-20s.
Chicago Reader
Dmitry Samarov
This is a film carried by two people who've basically never acted before, but Anderson somehow knew that they could, and neither hits a false note in over two hours. It's a star-crossed love story à la Harold and Maude minus the tragedy.

This film - which is as sprawling as the Valley it tries to capture - will command a second (and third) watch.
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
The things in Licorice Pizza that are so good, like the performances from Haim and Hoffman and Cooper and the period fidelity, make you wish that the entire movie was just as good.
The Jewish Chronicle
Linda Marric
There is a heady optimism about Licorice Pizza that is often missing from Anderson's earlier films. My

I had fun watchingLicorice Pizza,an all-too-rare quality that no other year-end release can match. For that I am grateful that someone wrote Paul Thomas Anderson a blank check to make such an idiosyncratic, highly personal film.
Crooked Marquee
Jason Bailey
'Licorice Pizza' has an openness and vulnerability that's closer to his early work, specifically to 'Magnolia,' and its willingness to swing for the emotional fences in a way his later films might not.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Anderson captures the frenzied feelings of teenage affection. It's a fleeting thing in the long run, but that doesn't make it any less real.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
An instant classic that brings out the best from some old pros and the brilliant newcomers Cooper Hoffman and Alana Haim.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
The strange and challengingly charming awkwardness of Alana and Gary, as well as the more entertaining anecdotes, will get you past the somewhat lumpen structure.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
It might be most rewarding to view "Licorice Pizza" as a dream: It doesn't always add up, or even go anywhere in particular. But it makes its own kind of offbeat, freewheeling sense.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
"Pizza" is unlike most coming-of-age comedies, reflecting the good and the bad of the times without ever preaching. It's filled with a sense of brutally honest nostalgia.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Neither Haim, a member of the band Haim, nor Hoffman, the son of the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, have acted before.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Watching "Licorice Pizza" is simultaneously like watching life with all the boring parts cut out and like watching movies with all the phony parts cut out. I can't even guess how anyone could do both things at once, but Anderson did it.
The Ringer
Adam Nayman
The notorious control freak Paul Thomas Anderson has loosened the grip on his phantom threads and delivered a transcendent, free-flowing trip through his past...
The New Republic
Jo Livingstone
A meandering nostalgia trap...Paul Thomas Anderson's latest movie makes the 1970s dreamy but lacks the edge of his earlier films.
Inside Hook
Charles Bramesco
Behind each scene, there's a smile and a shake of the head -- an acceptance that the good times are behind us, and that that's a fine place for them to be.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
"Licorice Pizza" is a film of immense, swirling complexity, and its elaborateness... comes off as a sort of defiance, of resistance to current modes of easy and consumable viewing.
