      Austin Smith New York Post If Steve Martin proved anything last night, it's how good Billy Crystal is in the role of Oscar host. Funnyman though he is, Martin seemed little more than a caretaker assigned to fill in until Crystal decides to return. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Mike McDaniel Houston Chronicle Give [Steve Martin] his due, he not only managed to make the Shrine Auditorium audience forget that Billy Crystal was not there, but proved that, even for a first-time Oscar host, he was smartly up to the challenge. Nov 8, 2019 Full Review David Edelstein Slate The 2001 edition of the Academy Awards was fast, clean, unmemorable. The risks were few, the payoff small, the Best Picture prize somehow both shocking and anticlimactic. Nov 8, 2019 Full Review Alex Sandell Juicy Cerebellum Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon got robbed, the speeches were too short, the songs were too long and Steve Martin should have spent more time on screen, and could have been a bit funnier. Nov 8, 2019 Full Review Irish Times Staff Irish Times The ceremony itself was unusually witty and entertaining and mostly tight and tasteful... Much of the credit must go to Steve Martin, who made a scintillating debut as the show's compere Nov 8, 2019 Full Review Jeff Simon Buffalo News It was almost enough to restore your faith, I tell you. There are good reasons for loving show business, even in a sodden Oscar year. Nov 7, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
