Critic Reviews

  • Peter Howell, Toronto Star

    [A] flaky disaster.

  • Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail

    The casting problem starts with the movie's lead, Norah Jones.

  • Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

    It's not the pie that is meant to make this watchable, it is Wai's greatest gift, observing people, little slices of life in New York, Memphis or Nevada. Unfortunately in this case, those slices don't add up to a meal, or even dessert.

  • Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune

    Fans of Chinese director Wong Kar Wai's dreamy, romantic films will find My Blueberry Nights a luscious treat, although newcomers to his world of sensuous longing will no doubt wonder what all the fuss is about.

  • Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune

    Only in flashes does Wong Kar-Wai let you forget about the relentless, meticulous beauty long enough to lose yourself inside it.

    First and foremost, who would ever have guessed that Norah Jones is really pretty devent as an actress on top of being an incredible musician and vocalist? Some people end up with all the talent! I really loved My Blueberry Nights. It is atomophesic and poetic. The story and dialog… More

    A Chick Flick is my guess, didn't hold my interest. Young Girl breaks up with Boyfriend and ends up making a friend in a cafe with owner, but before it develops she?s traveling across America trying to find herself. In the end she's back at the cafe wiping more then… More

    Liked this romantic movie. The ending was pretty gross. I mean I don't mind kissing or anything like that but you'll see what I was talking about.
