April 13, 2011Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex, But Were Afraid To Ask is bizarre not only in name (it will henceforth be called EB for simplicity). It's probably the most purely comedic of Woody Allen's movies, being little more than a collection of sketches with various sexual ... read more

November 23, 2010A mix between the brilliant Woody Allen and the style of a Mel Brooks film, Everything...is amazingly original and funny. Every scene is stylized, the script flawless, the punchline inches away from your nose, but you don't dare sneeze. Just plain wonderful.

May 19, 2008Allen tries hard on a bit more edgier comedy based on some curious sexual habits. Some moments are outrageous, but not all of them work, none its hysterically funny except from the last one. despite that, all the episodes have their own "charm", in a quirky way.

January 1, 2008A fun and interesting series of sketches (seven in all) in which we see many sides of Woody Allen's odd-ball humour, some much better than others. Of particular interest are the sketches featuring Gene Wilder ("What is Sodomy?") and Burt Reynolds ("What Happens During Ejaculation... read more

October 22, 2007That last little sperm skit was THE the cutest thing I've seen in a while. But all in all, this was slightly disappointing because I liked maybe just half of them. But yeah, the end skit made up for everything, almost.

Really dated, but clever concept.

Rob Thomas, Capital Times (Madison, WI)
This should be a hit-and-miss effort, but it's mostly hits.

Funny the first time. Multiple viewings offer nothing.

Greg Muskewitz, eFilmCritic.com
Its ability to jump around vignette-style allows Allen to generously spread his hilarious schtick to a broad number of subjects without fear of dilution. One of Allen's unsung classics.

Sperm can be fun!

Bob Bloom, Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)
John Carradine as the mad scientist! Gene Wilder and the ewe! Tasteless, but funny; the sperm sequence is priceless.

Too uneven to be good. Too good to ignore
