A Rainy Day in New York | Rotten Tomatoes

Keith To see Timothee Chalamet play the piano and sing is worth the price of admission! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/21/20 Full Review William F Breath of fresh air to get a late dose of Woody Allen's quirky humour and romance. With the new Tr*mp administration I was really beginning to doubt the US and then this: Woody Allen's mix of (what now seems like) old-fashioned humour, culture, wistfulness and love. And the jazz piano music, and the rain, and Central Park and that straight-faced funny dialogue and and and. May he live forever. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/13/25 Full Review SuperFrank C Such a NY gem. If you grew up in privileged Manhattan life, this story strikes home. Timothee nails it. Then again, he is native Manhattan and gets it. A gem. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/08/25 Full Review Susana H The acting is what elevates this movie from mediocrity. Chalamet, Fanning, and Gomez are natural and charming. Chalamet plays a better Woody that the man himself. I felt guilty watching it because I don't want to support Woody since the sex abuse allegations came out. In fact, the three actors donated their pay from the movie to women's and sex abuse causes. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/25 Full Review SkyRo P "A Rainy Day in New York" is a film featuring Timothée Chalamet that pleasantly surprised me. I have to admit, while he’s one of my favorite actors, his film choices can be hit or miss. However, I found myself genuinely enjoying this movie from start to finish. Timothée brought his character to life in a way that felt authentic, and the twist involving his mother was executed exceptionally well. Her character arc added depth to the story, even though it ventured into over-the-top territory. The narrative had some fast-paced moments that left me a bit confused about which plotlines would continue and which would be dropped. Unfortunately, there were several instances where storylines felt abandoned, which was a bit disappointing despite my overall enjoyment of the film. On the other hand, I have to critique the writing, which struck me as quite disjointed at times. Additionally, I found Elle Fanning's character somewhat off-putting. Her delivery and dialect felt forced and uncomfortable, lacking authenticity. It made her performance come across as subpar, and I believe her character could have benefited from more thoughtful writing or stronger acting. Overall, while I appreciated certain aspects of the film, particularly Timothée's performance and the intriguing mother-son dynamic, the execution left room for improvement. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/25 Full Review Kevin L This was a reasonably entertaining movie; an easy watch for a Sunday afternoon. I'm a fan of both Chalamet and Fanning, having just seen them in "A Complete Unknown", where they were both very effective. They make a good pair here with their obvious chemistry and how they embody these characters so well. I like these roaming, day/night long flicks, with random figures coming in and out of the proceedings. Here it's Schrieber, Law, Gomez, Luna, Rohrback who push and pull at lead figures Gatsby (really, Woody?) and Asheligh. Keeps things moving along and interesting, for the most part. And I wasn't put off by the constant context of the lives of the well-to-do. A lot of lovely, elegant settings; plus, the MOMA. A minor Allen film, but worthy enough. Maybe a bit more Rebecca Hall? 3.2 stars Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review Read all reviews
