Movie Reviews

Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael WilmingtonSeemingly a simple comedy, it actually -- like all Allen's "simple" comedies -- has a lot to say. Will the audience listen or just dismiss it as minor, out-of-date Woody? If they do, it's their loss.
Film Blather - 9/10 by Eugene NovikovThe formula is appealingly simple, and Allen's ear for distinctive old-codger dialogue and his equally distinctive acting let him emerge from his meandering scripts unharmed.
Aisle Seat - 9/10 by Mike McGranaghanThe Curse of the Jade Scorpion is a pure joy to watch. It's one of Allen's best films.
Reel.com - 9/10 by Tor ThorsenProdded to life only by the infrequent verbal zinger, the story feels sluggish, especially when it dwells on a romantic tangent 20 minutes after it should have logically ended.
Dallas Morning News - 9/10 by Philip WuntchThe film comes dangerously close to a vanity project and will give ammunition to the filmmaker's detractors.
One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekIt's a frail, anemic trifle, a five-minute sketch inexcusably drawn out to well over an hour and a half.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 9/10 by Emanuel LevyLike a Swiss clock, Allen is the only American director who makes a film every year, but chronic fatigue and lack of inspiration seem to have taken over his work, as this retro comedy, using the old conceit of hypnosis, shows.
New York Post - 9/10 by Lou LumenickWoody Allen's most purely entertaining film in years.
Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) - 9/10 by Jeffrey WesthoffAllen made funnier films when he thought he was Ingmar Bergman.
Movie Habit - 8/10 by Marty MapesThe Curse of the Jade Scorpion is everything you'd expect from Woody Allen -- funny lines, stars galore, jazzy music, and gratuitously good cinematography.
