Steve Dollar, Wall Street Journal
Wisely observant of human nature as it bounces between the leads, Gabi evokes Woody Allen with a more generous heart (and a lot more casual nudity). Full Review

Mike Hale, New York Times
The shock of recognition dissipates, to be replaced by the glance at the wristwatch. Full Review

Eric Hynes, Village Voice

Ronnie Scheib, Variety
Remarkably, the film gradually, effectively coheres, building to a climax at once unexpected yet integral to what has transpired before. Full Review

Matt Brunson, Creative Loafing
