“A flawless anti-Cinderella story for the ages. Anora barely ever loses its humour, something that might surprise viewers expecting a more gritty or depressing watch.”
★★★★★ Maddy Mussen, London Evening Standard

"‘Pretty Woman’ with a vodka hangover? Sean Baker’s darkly funny sex-work screwball is a blast."
★★★★★ Dave Calhoun, Time Out

"Brilliant Pretty Woman-esque comedy…leading lady Mikey Madison is surely destined for stardom thanks to her role in Sean Baker’s high-energy panic comedy."
★★★★★ Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph

“.. The story reaches a new pitch of Coen brothers-style black comedy.”
★★★★★ Kevin Maher, Times

“It is a terrific performance from Madison, who owns the screen, and Eydelshteyn’s turn as the shiftless Vanya is also very watchable. Baker’s film-making is muscular and fluent.”
★★★★ Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
