Blue Jasmine

Blanchett fabulously goes above and beyond her duties as the wilting faux flower of the title.

There’s something admirably perverse about a movie that casts Andrew Dice Clay as the most upstanding character on screen.

Allen’s best film in years, astute, humane and shot through with keen observations on the state of the world.

She's [Jasmine] an exhausting character to be with, to watch and, presumably, to play. But Blanchett takes on the challenge like a peak-fitness runner facing a marathon, ploughing her way through 26 miles of emotional road...

Han gör fortfarande briljanta små porträtt, Allen, och skisser till historier som berättar mycket om mänskligheten med lättsam pessimism.

Det er vintage Woody, men føles alligevel i den grad originalt og anderledes i forhold til hans tidligere film.
