Four tales unfold in the Eternal City: While vacationing in Rome, architect John (Alec Baldwin) encounters a young man whose romantic woes remind him of a painful incident from his own youth; retired opera director Jerry (Woody Allen) discovers a mortician with an amazing voice, and he seizes the opportunity to rejuvenate his own flagging career; a young couple (Alessandro Tiberi, Alessandra Mastronardi) have separate romantic interludes; a spotlight shines on an ordinary man (Roberto Benigni).

Critics Consensus

To Rome With Love sees Woody Allen cobbling together an Italian postcard of farce, fantasy, and comedy with only middling success.

It's not a bad film, but TO ROME WITH LOVE is very minor Woody Allen.

Rated: 2.5/5

You would need a heart of anthracite (or an address in Lazio) to sit through To Rome With Love without emitting a snigger.

Rated: 3/5

London Evening Standard

This stale and flaccid exercise looks as if it has come from one of those old notebooks in which [Allen] keeps discarded ideas.

Deep Focus Review

However much the film resolves to be a trifle, it’s a trifle with a gorgeous backdrop and a talented cast acting in situations that make us laugh.

Rated: 3/4

I'd like to equate this film to a nice vacation getaway: it's fun while it lasts, but sooner or later we need to wake up and get back to reality.

Rated: B

This is without a doubt the worst film I’ve ever seen. The disparate story lines are far fetched and just downright annoying. The writing is horrendous and some really good actors are made to look like primary school theater kids without any experience. I honestly can’t believe this film went to market.

I enjoyed this film, both for the pretty setting/cinematography and the characters. Its a typically quirky Woody Allen film featuring gentle comedy and a certain amount of, as I say quirkiness or perhaps zaniness may also be an applicable term. Its not the most memorable film around ever or anything like that but the characters are interesting and its a pleasant watch - a little saucy at times, hence the 12 rating but there's nothing especially graphic shown and for a film of this type, its quite good. I'd recommend this film.

The acting is decent and it has some nice cinematography of Rome but I’m not much of a woody Allen fan this is one of his weaker films. The movie is a total snoozer. It’s very slow moving and not much plot. It’s not an entertaining film it’s not very funny or exciting just kind of there.

4 storie bizzarre con personaggi discutibili e poco sinceri nei loro comportamenti. Manca un filo conduttore che possa unire le fila e creare più interesse. I fasti di Woody Allen sono lontani e vengono a galla le difficoltà degli ultimi anni.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
