Licorice Pizza | Ratings & Reviews

Paul Thomas Anderson bottles magic with the debuts of Alana Haim and Cooper Hoffman in this tender, moving and funny coming-of-age pic, one that manages to feel achingly real even as Bradley Cooper hilariously gobbles scenery.

"It’s such a delectable film..."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"Anderson’s instincts were dead-on in choosing Hoffman and Haim."

VarietyVariety

"Haim makes one of the most exciting screen debuts in recent memory."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Irresistibly hard to pin down: you'd have to go back around 50 years... to find another that runs on a similar kind of woozy clockwork."

The TelegraphThe Telegraph
