thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/08/25 Full Review R T Its good to see LA story given the highest rating of all steve martins films by critics as its my favourite steve matin film. Eccenentric english woman meets wacky american and both liable to say the unsayable in polite society "nothing some sleep and a good f wouldnt cure".... "I feel ... erect". The chemistry is wonderful in this film and perhaps understandable as they were married at the time. Of all the rom coms i've watched and would never watch again in a million years because they're so cringey (hugh grant films in particular), this is different because it feels as though there's genuine warmth in the relationship. My favourite quote of the film is "we never know when love starts but we always know when it ends". So poignant and so true! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Audience Member A sweet magical film from Martins heart. Sometimes over the top, but a perfect rendition of the early 90s with a hint of Fellini and sparkles of magical realism. It is a wonderful film of you have the palette for this type of experience.

Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Taylor L Maybe it's because I have never been to L.A., but I just don't connect with L.A. Story. It's a strange blend of an ode to and satire of a city, slapstick comedy, and fantasy romance. Los Angeles is full of superficiality and smugness, degrading but full of possibilities, but all of the criticisms are counteracted when you realize that the film is basically Steve Martin (already a very successful comedian and actor) making a movie in L.A. with his many famous friends in cameo roles, barely poking fun at themselves. As a romantic comedy Martin (as both writer and lead actor) does some great individual gags that feel on par with the ZAZ-style absurdism that was in vogue at the time, but if you're not familiar with L.A. it's almost as if you're only told half of the story. However, the improvisational tone and some of the jokes still make the film worth a watch even if the relationship side of this rom-com mostly fizzles out.
