Reviews


90
The Hollywood Reporter - David Rooney
Allen's dialogue is witty, his plotting zings along with forward momentum in all the right places, and his observation of elastic moral principles in flux is both mischievous and unsettling, yielding a tasty final-act Hitchcockian twist.
80
Screen International - Unnamed
Irrational Man heads to one of the most startling pieces of action he’s ever filmed. It hints where he stands now as a moralist or cynic in a corrupt world.
80
Variety - Scott Foundas
Allen’s visual direction and editing rhythms are particularly sharp and precise this time around, as is his work with the actors.
75
IndieWire - Eric Kohn
If the genre elements sustain the work as a whole, the plot suffers from the meandering quality that frequently plagues late period Allen work. Still, the filmmaking finds its groove in individual moments.
63
Slant Magazine - Steve Macfarlane
Woody Allen and Joaquin Phoenix's collaboration on Irrational Man's antihero is the closest the film gets to a saving grace.
