Sweet and Lowdown Ratings & Reviews
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
Woody Allen, in his thirtieth outing as writer-director, still shows signs of change, improvement, depth of feeling.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Thanks to Morton's presence, it gets closer to the sweetness of the wonderful Everyone Says I Love You.
Film Threat
Ron Wells
Focusing on the story, the auteur explores his two favorite topics, jazz and s----heels, to enter the new millenium in style.

Jeffrey Overstreet
... seems to be the latest chapter in a great work on the artist's search for meaning, for self-worth, for redemption.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Droll and amusing.
USA Today
Mike Clark
The jazz is certainly here, but the passion is missing.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
The movie has ample delights.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Emmet Ray is a fictional character, but so convincing in Woody Allen's Sweet and Lowdown that he seems like a real chapter of jazz history we somehow overlooked.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
This is one very tuneful labor of love.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
A snappy, loose-limbed performance from Penn.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
Sweet and Lowdown is undeniably pleasant, but British actress Samantha Morton quietly explodes it: Her performance is like nothing I've seen in recent years.
Newsweek
David Ansen
A likable, lively little ditty -- one theme, some clever variations -- that never wears out its welcome.
Film.com
Elizabeth Weitzman
The movie is so confused about where it wants to go, it suffers from the same identity crisis as its protagonist.
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
There is enjoyment to be had from Sweet and Lowdown.
Village Voice
Amy Taubin
Great material.
Film.com
Peter Brunette
The only reason to see this film is for the acting.
