David Thompson Time Out 06/24/2006
If the film still has value, it lies in the compelling lead performances and the vivid portrait of a newly restless milieu. Go to Full Review
Chicago Reader 05/27/2006
The film serves as a fascinating document of Polish youth culture during the least repressive years of the communist era, as well as a rough draft for the freewheeling comedies Skolimowski would soon direct himself Go to Full Review

Barry G 03/14/2023 Andrzej Wajda's masterclass filmmaking turned this seemingly simple love story drama into a beautiful psychological portrait of people, not only young ones, as descriptions tried to sell it back in 1961. With excellent acting and its music being absolutely superb, "Innocent Sorcerers" is high on the list of top Polish films, being maybe even Poland's all-time best. See more Shioka O 01/15/2023 Highly stylish Polish new wave. See more 05/15/2015 What is supposed to be witty exchanges is just pretentious platitudes. See more 02/16/2014 A sweet would-be-love story from Andrzez Wadja, that is an affable black sheep amongst the rest of his films. See more 10/20/2009 I'm hoping to find a Wajda film I like as much as Kanal, but this one isn't it. It's okay... slightly new wave, as if influenced by Breathless, but I believe it actually came out first. Most of it consists of one conversation between the two main characters, whose flippant tone with each other hides a deeper desire to connect. A nice movie, but not too fulfilling. Keep an eye out for young Roman Polanski. See more 02/24/2009 quite a poetic and magical movie. it's all just a play, just a game...and the jazz suits so ideally See more Read all reviews
