Atom User Reviews for Licorice Pizza
A 15yr old guy and a 25yr old woman crushing on each other? honestly the movie wasn't bad, it'll have you questioning things. I'm just surprised a film like this was advertised and made it to theaters given how society is now. especially when everyone wanted Cuties banned from Netflix for essentially the same thing. I don't condone it but it's nice to see the depiction of an older woman dealing with a minor because people act like that never happens. if the genders were reversed I don't think this film would have even been greenlit
Uncomfortable Inappropriate Controversial Not for me.
An overlong, occasionally funny film that fantasizes about growing up in the 70s while following a slew of unlikable characters doing unlikable things with no consequences. The acting is good though.
It was incredible
Funny, Entertaining but more a slice of life, than a pointed story.
it was not incredible.
this movie was offensive and all about pedophilia
Some parts didn't get appropriate explanation but not bad for two leads whose first time ever acting onscreen was in this movie.
Definitely not a movie for everyone. This deals with a very sensitive theme, but I do think it pulls it off gracefully. Very funny, great characters, masterful cinematography, and a style to glue it all together.
Someone explain to me tf this was
Boring
No real story line. No tieing scenes together. Just a series of snippets. Shame

Ummmm idk why I watched that…… they knew it was creepy but kept following through…. Ew
So good.
Surreal and lovely experiences based on the strangest connection between 2 people
Highschool drama done right
Definitely worth seeing. Great lead performances that leave you wanting more. The moving truck scene is next level
this movie makes me wanna play pinball
PTA does it again
Horrible movie boring as heck no plot just a series of weird scenes with a list actors. Guess they all needed a job after Covid. Save your time and money. I walked out and I never walk out on movies.
The movie was outstanding. What I enjoyed the most was the trailer which was captivating. Unlike modern trailer‘s that reveal the whole story this just had enough to grabs my attention and wanting me to know more about it.
Metacritic
Anderson may be concocting his own personal flashback to a funkier age of innocence, but he lets these two make it their own double-act as well. Then he generously invites an audience in as well.
If you’re open to its unconventional, idiosyncratic flavors, Licorice Pizza is a wonderfully wistful and evocative ode to youth, done by a masterfully poised filmmaker who doesn’t really care if this ain’t your bag. All our welcome and invited, of course, but PTA’s mellow and balmy effort feels like it’s enjoying itself too much to care if you haven’t caught on to its whole-hearted drift.
In a world of algorithmically sorted content, Anderson’s ninth film, and his first since 2017’s Phantom Thread, is irresistibly hard to pin down: you’d have to go back around 50 years, to the likes of Hal Ashby’s Shampoo or Peter Bogdanovich’s The Last Picture Show, to find another that runs on a similar kind of woozy clockwork.
