Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Although the film, much like its protagonist and his piano playing, lacks a certain passion, its stylistic structure and execution are coolly flawless.
In Allegro, the past is a shadowy night town whose geography is continually rearranging itself.
Like its gifted, but emotionally frigid, pianist hero, Allegro is filled with technical virtuosity but short on real feeling.
Writer-director Christoffer Boe takes himself very, very seriously. Me, not so much.
