It shouldn’t all be so funny, but it is, and it’s to Baker’s huge credit that he’s able to inspire laughs and huge enjoyment from this madcap story without leaving you feeling that the woman at the heart of this mess has been short-changed. – Time Out

At this point in his career, Baker has cultivated his own style of breathless, relentlessly pressurized urban realism, and Anora is as assured a piece of filmmaking as you’re likely to see this year. – The Ringer
