	Media	Author	Review
		Peter Preston The Guardian	"It's a weepy that blocks its own tear ducts with clichés and implausibilities."
		Caroline Westbrook Empire	"By the halfway mark you'll be desperate for Ryder to end her misery and yours (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"
		Emanuel Levy Variety	"'Autumn in New York' is not a bad picture, just utterly banal. Desperately eager to register as a love affair in the mold of Hollywood's classics"
		Stephen Holden The New York Times	"If the movie, directed by Joan Chen, exhibits a loving eye for Manhattan exteriors, it's undone by its own rigidly old-fashioned conventions"
		Peter Rainer New York Magazine	"The aroma of fetid formulas wafts about [Ryder] in this movie (...) 'Autumn in New York' is terrible"
		Keith Phipps AV Club	"'Autumn In New York' has virtually nothing to recommend it (...) Scarifyingly awful"
		James Berardinelli ReelViews	"It's not nearly as bad as it could have been (...) If your eyes are dry at the end, it's because the central relationship doesn't work (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"
		Neil Smith BBC	"The biggest problem is the way Gere’s character takes centre stage at the expense of Ryder’s (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
		Joanna Berry Radio Times	"Richard Gere and Winona Ryder are the incredibly unlikely couple in this unbelievable romance (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"
