All That Jazz Reviews

Creative and engaging, but ultimately too long for general audiences, despite Scheider giving a remarkable performance as a commercially accomplished yet personally flawed showman.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jan 17, 2025

All That Jazz may not be a perfect film, but it’s a perfect film to mark the end of the decade and to capture the insanity that was New Hollywood.

| May 16, 2024

It's about a brilliant man who, yes, maybe have made a film for his peers, but nonetheless, has had the guts to lay it out for everyone to take a peek.

Even thinking about it still brings tears to my eyes. That, that is what I’m seeking when I go to the movies. All that jazz.

Episode 40: The Dead Don't Die / Birds of Passage / All That Jazz

| Original Score: 94/100 | Oct 4, 2021

It's a film that takes chances, an exciting rollercoaster ride that deserves its personal chapter in the art of film-making.

| Aug 19, 2021

This is one of the greatest American films ever made.

| Original Score: 10/10 | Feb 16, 2021

A tour de force self-portrait by the brilliant writer-director-choreographer Bob Fosse, as seamlessly impersonated in a career-peak turn from Roy Scheider.

| Jun 8, 2020

It's the opposite of a vanity project.

The music lacks personality and it never shines too bright. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Aug 12, 2019

Allows us to go deeper inside a movie that was so much more than just another musical, it is a window into the soul of an artist.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 7, 2019

Bob Fosse's half-confession about what a jerk he was to the women in his life...

| Original Score: 3/4 | May 28, 2019

This is a plausible milestone in the evolution of the Hollywood film, a quivering, pulsating, dynamic, excessive and flawed film that wears its alienation proudly where its heart should be.

| Apr 27, 2018

The most beautifully fluid of Fosse and Heim's collaborations, it's the raucous fantasia of a spectacularly horny man who can't stop drinking, drugging and screwing around, even when he's at death's door.

| Dec 18, 2017

By the time the film is over, the movie has degenerated with a jaundiced vengeance. Fosse's sour, grandstanding cynicism imposed an intolerable burden of self-pity on his talent, our compassion and the tradition of the backstage musical.

| Aug 4, 2015

Fosse fans, Broadway fans, and those fascinated with film will find quite a lot to admire, however, those expecting a fun musical romp will need to inquire elsewhere and at some other time and place.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Oct 9, 2014

All That Jazz is one of the most self-indulgent movies ever made-but blessedly so.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Sep 8, 2014

...were it not for the steady, understated presence of Roy Scheider as Fosse stand-in Joe Gideon, the whole thing might well do up in a burst of spontaneous combustion, spraying sequins and feather boas in all directions.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Aug 8, 2013

All That Jazz is a speed freak of a movie, flying by at breakneck pace, then screeching to a halt so the protagonist can indulge in some serious ruminations on death

| Original Score: 83/100 | Jul 22, 2010

Savagely witty on backstage life and audaciously edited.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Aug 12, 2008
