Woody is living in his own world. So devoid of reality that you can't take the movie seriously at all. Who talks like this? If some bitch said to me in my mansion "this garden is so established" I would be like listen, you have 2 options: 1) start sucking or 2) run away before I shoot you in the face you weirdo. It's like they are theater actors in real life, it's just bizarre and unbelievable.

A bunch of broad, two-dimensional caricatures - many of whom will make you wonder if Woody Allen has, in fact, ever actually spoken to or interacted with another human being - in search of a plot. Sally Hawkins is very good, at least.

There is something impressive about the way Allen shows the implosion of a universe, but the film offers so few pleasures to the audience that it can only really be measured by the power of its insights and the strength of its performances, which did not convince this viewer as much as others. The harsh moral light that Allen insists on casting is indeed something of a bracing tonic in a world that has mostly given up the notion that lives can be judged. Still, something of a disappointment.

This is seriously like a Mike Leigh movie. The supporting characters are pretty broad, but Blanchett is amazing here. I guess you can accuse this of "using" mental illness for a story like people have argued with Silver Linings Playbook. On the other hand, this doesn't have the dumb redemption qualities of that film. Weirdly harrowing, it's basically the opposite of any movie Woody Allen has made in 30 years.

Cate Blanchett is formidable, in all the senses of the word. This isn't the realistic, 'Hannah and Her Sisters'/'Husbands and Wives'-Woody; rather, it's a more heightened dark comedy of (stereotypical) manners. Casting is phenomenally successful across the board, and the heart provided by characters Chili and Augie counterpoints the tang of unbecomingly aloof satire.

One of Woody Allen's all-time best character studies (!). 'Blue Jasmine' is - thank God - stripped of the lightweight satire and semi-cheesy nostalgia of his last two films instead bringing forward an equally horrifying and irresistible portrait of the post-financial crisis hangover embodied by a never better Cate Blanchett and terrific ensemble performances.

Where has THIS Woody Allen been for the last 20 years? Mature, focused, insightful, character-driven, and wildly entertaining, this movie exemplifies Allen at his absolute best. His time-shifting structure, much like in Annie Hall, gives scenes a dramatic punch. And this is some of his absolute best casting. Blanchett gives the best performance I've ever seen in an Allen film, and the supporting cast is excellent all around. This film sits alongside Annie Hall and C&M as one of Allen's greats.

Will rightly be held in the same regard as Allen's absolute best films; this is a character study of immense intricacy. Much has been made of this being a straight Allen drama, but it's darkly comic too. Blanchett's performance is simply a towering, all encompassing work of genius, but credit must also be given to the supurb Hawkins who at no point is dwarfed by the hugeness of Blanchett's performance. I had some minor complaints, but they're not worth bleating about. Highly recommended.

Good luck to all other actresses who will compete in Best Actress category in Oscars this year. Cate Blanchett is absolutely sensational! Since this is a comedic performance and a great satire for all the Valley Girls out there, it's definitely not an overacting. Cate Blanchett is the heart, mind and body of this film. She IS Blue Jasmine. Film itself is not great overall but Woody makes 1 good 1 bad movie these days. This is his good year. Not Midnight in Paris good, but likeable enough.

Oh look, a Woody Allen movie that's set in New York City, tries/fails to be funny, and features neurotic self-absorbed white people who spend two hours freaking out about their first-world problems. Certain scenes are worth a watch for the great performances of two Boardwalk Empire alumni. Other than that, this film stinks.

While the writing and plotting were at times weak, the ensemble cast carries it extraordinarily, particularly Blanchett. Jasmine is an entitled, wealth-obsessed jerk who cares more about how she appears to people than the people themselves. And yet Blanchett somehow manages to pull some sympathy from the viewer through her collapse, although not a lot. The issues of class and happiness were reasonably well explored, though SF as the home of the poor, working class girl was kinda hilarious.

My biggest problem with this is that I found Jasmine to be an increasingly pathetic and detestable character throughout. Blanchett's performance is brilliant, but it becomes tainted by how much I just disliked the character. By the end she seemed more like the villain than Baldwin to me. I thought the sister's story was much more engaging and would have liked to see more of that and Louis C.K.

The only thing worse than a poor, pointless production, is a well done one where you walk out saying, "what am I supposed to do with that?" You can't blame it on the lack of talent. Is it there so we can point to the tragic figure who is suffering from self-induced blindness and say, Ha!, that's not me? There's no upside from that in it for me.

I totally agree that the Best Actress 2014 should go to Kate Blanchett for her amazing performance in BJ. She is simply incredible to watch as her life falls apart a little bit more each day in this wonderful Woody Allen character study. Totally believable, Totally consistent, and supported superbly by the excellent cast around her. Her story is told in flashback, and the editing, direction and script help make this one of the most enjoyable films I have seen for many months.

Cate Blanchett running into Andrew Dice Clay at that exact right moment near the end of the movie is so unlikely that it might as well have been supernatural. What was he even doing in that neighbourhood? Seriously, it would make more sense if Dice were a ghost returning to settle some unfinished business.

cate blanchett carried this film. my god was she phenomenal. woody allen owes her a lot for what this film ultimately became, because i think without her, it would have been one of his more mediocre endeavours. the film succeeded so profoundly as a character study. i wasn't struck with thematic catharsis here, the way i was with midnight in paris, but i think after that, this is my favourite allen film because it manages to get under the superficial skin (unlike much of allen's canon).

A modern-day Woman Under the Influence with Blanchett giving a performance as memorable and frightening as Gena Rowlands. She's absolutely brilliant. It's also perhaps Allen's harshest yet, surpassing even Crimes & Misdemeanors and Match Point, both of which were laced with laughs or thrills throughout. Blue Jasmine is levied by neither; it's a miserable experience but one of Allen's most touching and heartfelt films.

Cate Blanchett is phenomenal, but you know that; there's much else here to appreciate too. It's a great story - Streetcar meets that Hey Arnold! episode where Rhonda's famly go broke. But, er, better than that. The screenplay is sharp and often raw, pithy but natural. And supporting cast are top-shelf, from Hawkins and Cannavale's down-and-dirty couple to Baldwin's scuzzy businessman and CK's horny audio engineer. Hell, I loved the whole film. But I liked To Rome With Love, so what do I know?

One of Woody's (few) late-career gems, "Blue Jasmine" is an effective and occasionally gut-wrenching psychological study of a broken woman, portrayed superbly by Cate Blanchett. Allen's script isn't without its contrivances and his direction is merely passable, but the power of the performances, the delicious bits of dark comedy and the overall remarkable portrayal of a deeply troubled person contribute to a compelling and emotionally forceful picture.

Others seem to love it but to me BJ is one of Allen's weakest and most tiresome movies. Blanchett may act well but her character Jasmine is the sort of desperate, egocentric, repetitive wretch you want to cast into the gutter and abandon ASAP - not spend 90 minutes stuck with. I found the rest of the film - the themes of money, class and suitable partners; the other characters and locations - bland and banal. I can't believe the mind that came up with Midnight in Paris can spew out such tosh.

Truthfully, then, Blue Jasmine is moving and illuminating and beautifully acted. It is also bitterly profane and tragically bleak. While some have called it a comedy, it is of the saddest sort I've ever seen. There is occasional levity, but little hope. It only mutters to itself its anguish and pain in the dark of the theater (pluggedin.com)

As a former Bay Area resident I can't help but be disappointed that Allen mostly used tight shots of Blanchett and interior scenes instead of highlighting the beauty of San Francisco as he did with Paris in "Midnight." And I do wonder if the use of San Francisco as the town where the poor blue-collar sibling lives was intentional for comedic effect.

I was pretty indifferent to this movie when it came out, but now, having seen most of the truly abysmal Woodys, I'm a lot more impressed by it. The plot thread with Jasmine taking a computer class is really the only truly bizarre Old Man Woodyism. Does he really think that if you want to learn to use a computer, you have to go to school? Particularly for something basic like an online class? I mean, yeah, we all know he's a Luddite, but true Woodyheads know that he can at least send texts.

Although the quality of Allen's films became more inconsistent in the 90s, he still delivered some homeruns. This is underrated. Not only does Blanchett deliver an Oscar-worthy performance, Allen does something different here. This is a portrait of class that highlights all the massive differences between the genuinely privileged wealthy & blue collar workers, while at the same time showing their similarities in terms of desires & flaws. His third act also delivers a genuinely surprising twist.

Allen expertly crafts the disintegration of a women (Jasmine) into fragments of depression, anger and despair. This is not the portrayal of a 'loonie' or 'crackpot' (Allen knows and does much better than to abuse those dangerous and inhumane clichés) but rather a woman to whom life has not been kind. It raises some interesting and important questions about mental health and what is considered 'normal'. One of the more depressing Allen films that I've seen.

First, why do all characters have to be so stereotypical? Second, is W. Allen bringing proles in the movies just to show that it is not a unique feature of the bourgeoisie to be loathsome, thereby redeeming it some? Third, even though he shows how cute they can be, why do the proles in this movie have to be depicted as brutish? Is he just trying to hide his fundamental class condescension? Also, nice to see that W. Allen cannot do a movie without old guys dating way younger women... (rolls eyes)

there's an undeniable pattern in Allen's latest work; his 'stories' are getting more and more character driven and losing 'the substance' that hold together the movie. this reality is somewhat obscured in Blue Jasmine by Blanchett's killer performance. A year on from watching this, you'd tell yourself that she was excellent, wouldn't remember anything about the story. No memorable lines, no meat on the plot. It feels like Allen's running out of things to say.

Visst är Blanchetts skådespeleri utmärkt, men jag känner aldrig med henne och blir heller aldrig engagerad i hennes karaktärs öde. Jasmine är en rätt obehaglig huvudperson och till och med hennes bedragare till exman framstår som sympatisk i jämförelse. Det är nog manus som brister: Filmen gestaltar ingen förändring eller utveckling utan redan från första filmrutan är allt skrivet i sten.

Take home message: Ignorance is evl in its own right.

Such a beautiful disaster. Another one of Woody Allen's elegantly wasted heroines, capricious and messed up. I liked Allen's take on the variations of the sense of entitlement amongst the wealthy and the simple, the polarity of points of view. Both Blanchett and Hawkins are amazing, but Blanchett's task in this film is really tough and she delivers flawlessly.

Blue Jasmine is a well-acted, oddly captivating tragedy that doesn't really go anywhere. Blanchett does a great job capturing Woody Allen's neuroticism in her portray of a woman unhinged, and Hawkins is always a pleasure to watch, this time as an oddball with an American accent. The film is at times funny, more often depressing and it's a real quandary whether to pity Blanchett's character or to pity every character she comes in contact with.

Cate Blanchett does a great job, creating mood and pace for the whole movie. Just another great drama from Allen.

I've never been a huge Woody Allen fan, but Jasmine French is probably the most indelible character he's managed to create (in this case, with Blanchett's help) in years if not decades.

Although the acting of Blanchett is amazing and very credible, I don't feel like the story goes anywhere. How does she end up? At the end of the movie she is the same wreck as she was at the beginning of the movie. Because of the good acting I give it a 52/100.

I don't know if we're supposed to revel in this pampered socialite's downfall, but I found the movie relentlessly uncomfortable to watch. On the plus side, there's a cameo by Louis C.K.

This seems like an intentional reworking of A Streetcar Named Desire. Cate Blanchett does a great Blanche, making us somehow feel sorry for even as she brings most of her problems on herself with her pretentiousness, snobbery and lies. I wasn't sure why the film was set in San Francisco while most of the characters seemed very New York-y including the sister's ex-husband and her new boyfriend and his friends. No real use of the location.

Cate Blanchett's character is affluenza patient zero, a one-percenter defenestrated from her palace only to fall on the cow manure below. Watch as she tries and fails to put your life back together. Watch and laugh at her misfortune. Mwahaha...

Blue Jasmine is a simple yet compelling story of a lost, wrecked, delusional and mean spirited woman. I think the success of any Woody Allen film relies heavily on the script and the casting. And here both elements are superb. Cate Blanchett gives a remarkable performance and she's arguably Woody Allen's most captivating character in years. Sally Hawkins is as equally impressive. As is the whole of the stellar supporting cast. Ultimately it's a very simple story, but it's told to perfection.

Very good. Although Jasmine as a character has a bit too many dimensions just for the show of it.

Cate Blanchett does a good performance thing here. I was kept amused, but it was like a straight heart rate line, anything bad that was going to happen was to be expected. I think the type of person this movie's making fun of and trying to teach a lesson to isn't going to pay attention, it's more for the people who make fun of those, so no one's learning anything.

So slick the stereotype-ness fades and is forgiven, time-tinkering gives rhythm and balances building tensions brilliantly. A lovely mix of themes and allusions played perfectly.

The deck feels more than a bit stacked against Blanchett's Jasmine, so the key for this working at all is the humanity, the frailty, and the tenderness underneath Blanchett's performance. Certain elements don't ring true (no computer in the receptionist's office?), but the central narrative around Jasmine (and the one around her sister) is compelling overall. The final shot reminded me of Fellini's Nights of Cabiria, but in an alternate universe--Allen's nihilism can't touch Fellini's pathos.

I think this is the first Woody Allen movie I've seen that isn't either "Starring Woody Allen as Woody Allen" or "Starring some other person as Woody Allen." And it's still really really good.

Take the neuroses of the entire island of Manhattan and squeeze it into one human being, and you get a sense of what Cate Blanchett does with this role. However, a great performance does not a great movie make.

Amazing performance from Cate Blanchett as she depicts the downward spiral of a disgraced socialite. Her husband is a con man in business and life. Her extravagant pampered life crashes down and she struggles to cope with it and retain her sanity. She is an elegant train wreck. I really disliked how disjointed this felt. The editing reduced it to an almost random barrage of cut scenes with many good gritty scenes haphazardly strewn together.
