Martin Scorseses criminally neglected tribute to the heyday of the MGM musical has aged astonishingly well.

There are some things about it that rub me the right way: it has style, fire in its belly, great visuals and was ahead of its time.

Martin Scorsese created a very handsome and dynamic film, but the spectacular set pieces dont add up to much.
Chicago Reader

New York, New York is not the lively and brilliant film it should have been. It is rather a vague and drawn out story.
