Leave your thoughts about Barcelona.
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsTed PriggeThe script and acting is excellent, supplying the little-known actors with some truly interesting and some very classic dialogue. |
| VarietyTodd McCarthyAfter examining the rarefied world of debutante socialites with wit and obvious expertise in “Metropolitan,” Stillman opens up his artistic universe a bit more here and displays an increased ease with filmmaking craf |
| Globe and MailRick GroenSlyly hilarious, esthetically sound and spiritually restorative. |
| Washington PostHal HinsonUnlike “Metropolitan,” which for all its brittle wit seemed clunky and stagebound, Barcelona is sharply paced and alive on the screen. |
| The New York TimesJanet MaslinBarcelona, like "Metropolitan," indulges in long, hair-splitting discussions without resorting to broad gags or worrying about wearing out its welcome. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMichael SnyderThere are moments of satirical humor sparked by Ted's stiff, earnest demeanor and Fred's glib, transparent conniving. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertI've seen Barcelona twice. It seemed deeper to me the second time. It appears at first to be about the casual lives of young men trying to launch their careers, but eventually (again, like an Allen movie) it reveals darker depths and meanings. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris HicksThis isn't for everyone, to be sure, but those who enjoy literate, witty movies over shoot-'em-up, blow-'em-up fare should find much to savor. |
| CraveOnlineWitney SeiboldStillman's films tend to be about that magical moment when you realize people might actually start calling you on your s***. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyDarker and more acidic than Stillman's previous outing, this comedy, about two Americans at the end of the Cold War, could be described as Metropolitan meets Where the Boys Are meets The Year of Living Dangerously. |
