Critic Reviews

  • Urban Cinefile Critics, Urban Cinefile

    Alarmingly, some of Woody Allen's highly strung performance enhancing gestures rub off on Scarlett Johansson in this bizarre misfire from Allen, who hasn't even noticed that his plot doesn't hold water.

  • Robert Roten, Laramie Movie Scope

    What was surprising, however, was how sloppily it had been put together and how many holes there were in the story.

  • Peter T. Chattaway, Christianity Today

    Scoop is reminiscent of several of Woody Allen's films, but in a strange way, it harks back to films that were neither great nor lousy -- and like those films, it is an enjoyable diversion.

  • Angela Baldassarre, Sympatico.ca

    With "Scoop," his newest 'comedy,' Allen has once again proven that he doesn't give a damn about the audience by recycling familiar and lazy material in his signature self-indulgent style.

  • Josh Larsen, Sun Publications (Chicago, IL)

    Last year's Match Point marked a surprising return to vital filmmaking form for Woody Allen, but that movie had the distinct advantage of not being a comedy.
