Critics' reviews

"Although marred by a couple of too-convenient plot contrivances, this often humorous drama lands firmly in the plus column among the Woodman's recent works"

Todd McCarthy: The Hollywood Reporter
"Blanchett’s performance is so dominant in terms of screentime and emotional impact that the film succeeds as not only a virtuoso ensemble piece, but also an unflinchingly intimate study of the character in the title"

Justin Chang: Variety
"[Allen's] most sustained, satisfying and resonant film since 'Match Point'"

Manohla Dargis: The New York Times
"Want to see great acting, from comic to tragic and every electrifying stop in between? See Cate Blanchett in 'Blue Jasmine' (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"

Peter Travers: Rolling Stone
"It’s real 'Streetcar Named Desire' territory as the fights pile up, and if you think that doesn’t sound entertaining, know that it is, in a hypnotically catastrophic way (...) rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"

Joshua Rothkopf: Time Out
"It’s amazing how skilled he [Allen] is in making his old ideas seem fresh, lively, even urgent. His new drama Blue Jasmine comes this close to being a wheeze. But he sells it beautifully."

David Edelstein: New York Magazine
"It's one of the year's finest, most complex portrayals, in one of Allen's best films in years (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"
