Reviews

All That Jazz set a new standard for speed and complexity, its structure boasting as many temporal pirouettes as the headiest art house fare. Yet the film never feels labored. It’s not homework. It’s showtime.”
– Matt Zoller Seitz

“An uproarious display of brilliance, nerve, dance, maudlin confessions, inside jokes and, especially, ego.”
– Vincent Canby, The New York Times

“Fosse’s finest cinematic achievement.”
– Slant Magazine

“One of the most self-indulgent movies ever made—but blessedly so.”
– The Dissolve

“A must for Fosse fans.”
– Leslie Halliwell
