"'All of Me' shares with a lot of great screwball comedies a very simple approach: Use absolute logic in dealing with the absurd (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)" | ||||
"An unusually amiable and well-made comedy." | ||||
"The essence of the movie, and the key to its success, lies in the innocent rhythms of old-fashioned screwball comedy." | ||||
"For all its clowning, All of Me makes some good points about taking chances and doing what you want in life." | ||||
"Basically, it's 'Tootsie' reincarnated, an off-the- wall comedy for everybody who still doesn't know what to make of Boy George" | ||||
"Martin is his usual combination of flat cynicism and crazed childishness, indulging in some inspired Jerry Lewis-like clowning with his arms and legs hopelessly out of synch." | ||||
"Martin and Tomlin are both uninhibited physical comics. They tune in to each other's timing the way lovers do in life, only more so." | ||||
"If you're a Martin fan, you'll love 'All of Me'; if you aren't, there's still enough fun in spots to make it worth your time." |
