Salon
See it in one glorious shot, grab as much from it as you can and run like hell. I say that not because I hated Masked & Anonymous, but because I loved it. - 75
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
A strange and convoluted film that is as rewarding as a Dylan song, and just as perplexing. - 50
Rolling Stone
It's only when the film attempts to express its ideas in spoken English that logic dissolves into a muddle that would test the most rabid Dylanologist. - 50
Entertainment Weekly
Requires tremendous restraint not to conclude that this entertainingly apocalyptic mess is about nothing, since it may well be about everything. But I doubt it. - 50
San Francisco Chronicle
A messy, ambitious comedy. - 40
Dallas Observer
The film strains for some kind of meaning, but asks you to do the work it can't and won't perform on its own. - 40
Austin Chronicle
Bob Dylan might have been wrong when he sang that "there’s no success like failure, and failure’s no success at all." His new movie, although a complete narrative mess, is a thoroughly Dylanesque escapade. - 40
TV Guide Magazine
Though Dylan shuffles through the dramatic sequences like a dessicated mummy, the music sequences are strikingly vibrant -- he's never looked worse or sounded better.
