All That Jazz Reviews
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.

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.

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.

All That Jazz is one of the most self-indulgent movies ever made-but blessedly so.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Sep 8, 2014
Savagely witty on backstage life and audaciously edited.

Though Scheider is a wry, sensitive actor, he soon gets lost in the vulgar theatrics.

Almost every scene is excruciating (and a few are appalling), yet the film stirs an obscene fascination with its rapid, speed-freak cutting and passionate psychological striptease.
| Aug 12, 2008
A self-important, egomaniacal, wonderfully choreographed, often compelling film which portrays the energetic life, and preoccupation with death, of a director-choreographer.

It's very pleased with itself.

Some of it makes you wince, but a lot of it is great fun.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 9, 2005
All That Jazz may be Fosse's finest cinematic achievement.
| Aug 28, 2003
Flawed but dazzling masterpiece with a stunning performance by Roy Scheider.
