Critics' reviews

"The film is astonishing in the amount of material it contains. It isn't thin or superficial; there is an abundance of observation and invention here"

Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times
"Decent, intelligent and sweet. It's a fanciful romantic comedy whose wildest and craziest notion is that Los Angeles, for all of its eccentricities, is a great place to live"

Vincent Canby: The New York Times
"Goofy and sweet, L.A. Story constitutes Steve Martin's satiric valentine to his hometown and a pretty funny comedy in the bargain"

Variety Staff: Variety
"Si the material had been presented more insistently, it might have been insufferable, too goopy and new-age. Its modesty, though, is its prime virtue. "

Hal Hinson: The Washington Post
