Il film, contorniato da un cast di comprimari del calibro di Bradley Cooper e il premio Oscar Sean Penn, ha uno dei suoi punti di forza nella coppia di giovani debuttanti sul grande schermo: Cooper Hoffman, figlio di Philip Seymour, e la musicista Usa Alana Haim, qui al suo debutto assoluto in un lungometraggio.
Di seguito, alcune delle reaction più significative della stampa Usa a Licorice Pizza:
Licorice Pizza is god-tier PTA even *before* the 20-minute sequence where Bradley Cooper absolutely terrorizes the san fernando valley like a horny cocaine godzilla in a pantsuit. maybe the best movie i've ever seen about a teen selling waterbeds to impress his older jewish crush

#LicoricePizza is a dream! An opportunity to become completely enveloped by 1970s LA and the comfort and charm of an impossibly sweet story about growing up and finding love. Alana Haim and Cooper Hoffman have my heart. What an utter joy watching them dazzle in this. pic.twitter.com/xYle3NOjsr

LICORICE PIZZA is my personal favorite Paul Thomas Anderson movie since PUNCH DRUNK LOVE. For people who complain you want something “like Boogie Nights,” well, here you go.

I fell hard for Paul Thomas Anderson's #LicoricePizza. Like PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE, it's funny & eccentric, but the guy who sells mattresses in this one is a 15-year-old entrepreneur who's fallen hopelessly in love & doesn't know what to do about it. Will be one you watch lots of times pic.twitter.com/vGJ44tWwd6

#LicoricePizza has charm, wit and two outstanding debut performances from Cooper Hoffman and Alana Haim. I think many will dig its vibe. Bradley Cooper is about three minutes shy of an Oscar win for supporting actor. Paul Thomas Anderson could be in serious play for screenplay. pic.twitter.com/Kg1hQDyzjR

I adored Licorice Pizza, and believe it can finally win Paul Thomas Anderson his first Oscar: https://t.co/NENtUEt9So

Paul Thomas Anderson’s #LicoricePizza is superb. Feels like a warm, funny memory-driven coming of age fever dream, capturing a time when youthful possibilities crash into reality. Alana Haim is absolutely terrific. Cooper Hoffman, a revelation. Plus it’s got a KILLER soundtrack. pic.twitter.com/S7SnVZZQes

LICORICE PIZZA is Paul Thomas Anderson’s lightest & joyous film he’s made in some time, maybe ever. Sweet, hilarious & made with so much love & care. The various celebrity one-scene cameos are fun but Cooper Hoffman & Alana Haim steal our hearts with their incredible chemistry. pic.twitter.com/4KkxP0TKho
