Chicago Sun-Times

Sometimes you see a play and you can imagine it being a movie. Sometimes you see a small movie like this, and you can imagine it working better as an intimate stage play.

Sydney Morning Herald

As storytelling, 5 Flights Up is remarkably clumsy: the narrative strands never knit together, the well-intentioned messages are awkwardly spelt out, and the stakes remain low. That said, it's an easy film to watch.

Boy does Keaton look great in a New York apartment. Just the sight of her standing in a tiny living room is a statement against suburban life.

Movie Talk

It's all very cosy and undemanding, but Keaton and Freeman are such amiably engaging screen presences you will probably enjoy spending the time in their company.

The movie ends just as you expected it to end, and there are almost no surprises along the way.

Seattle Weekly

Completely reliant on the warmth and goodwill generated by its stars (rather than, say, its writing), this AARP-oriented dramedy strikes all the familiar chords.

What begins as a sweetly sentimental story ends up being cloyingly melodramatic.

Los Angeles Times

What a pleasure to see a simple, finely tuned dramedy about real adults with real emotions in a real-life situation.

It is hard to extract much of a high old time from a production like 5 Flights Up when the stakes involved are so exceedingly low.

Independent Online (South Africa)

While the plot might be the flimsiest, the characterisation actors Morgan Freeman and Diane Keaton bring to this film turns it into a small delight.

Time Out

If you're looking for a film completely free of loud explosions, raised voices or anything actually happening, you can't go wrong with this fusty New York fairytale.
