Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
Watchable independent drama from the mumblecore crowd, though it's not quite sharp enough, funny enough or insightful enough to really get off the ground and the characters are occasionally irritating.

Rating: 2/5 --
The film meanders along in conversational style, encouraging improvisational realism but also the thought that maybe these middle-class characters, not quite slackers, are less interesting than they, or the director, think they are.
London Evening Standard
Rating: 2.5/5 --
Less dazed and confused than mumbling and mundane, this drama focuses on social awkwardness and twentysomething blues. Skipping aimlessly from scene to scene it offers little observations and rewards low expectations.

Rating: 2/5 --
There is something teeth-grindingly cutesy about the whole thing, reaching epic levels of dippiness in the, ahem, nude trumpet-playing scenes. That makes it sound interesting, come to think of it, and perhaps it is.

Rating: 2/6 --
It's never enough to establish any sensitivity or social pertinence beyond the trifling tiffs which are playing out on screen.

Time Out
Rating: 3.5/5 --
Swanberg can be playful behind the camera -- he has a taste for Godardian jump cuts -- and his sense of color is crisp. Gerwig, his millennial Jean Seberg, is no pixie; her captivating ordinariness helps hold the movie together.

Austin Chronicle
Hannah is neurotic, sweet and mildly sarcastic, in a Gen-Y Diane Keaton sort of way, and her small-stakes odyssey through three relationships is wryly observed.

Product Description:
Director Joe Swanberg follows up LOL and KISSING ON THE MOUTH with this indie comedy that proves that three is a crowd in office romances. As the temperature rises in a Chicago summer, 20-something Hannah (Greta Gerwig) experiences highs and lows in her love life. Along with QUIET CITY, HANNAH TAKES THE STAIRS represented the height of the 2007 mumblecore movement--an independent film trend characterized by its talky, naturalistic feel.
