The characters are all stuck on tracks, which might work on other occassions, but not when your underscoring music is all about refusing to follow conventional tracks.

Reviews for Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist
It's an easy and lightweight date movie for teens who will enjoy also discovering some New York bands.
09/19/09
It's a pleasant enough interlude and the young band-crazy target market may get involved, but its appeal is limited and there is nothing especially fresh or novel about the content.
09/19/09
Although a comedy, and one rife with hilarious moments, it's a strikingly heartfelt flick.
08/30/09
A pleasingly jumbled mix CD
08/26/09
With the right touches of casting and chemistry, even the thinnest of premises can become weighty in sheer charm.
03/29/09
A near perfection romance comedy that will appeal to any and all audiences
02/09/09
With a great soundtrack and a plot that requires absolutely nothing of the audience, it's certainly Friday night fodder but could have been so much better.
02/05/09
Nick & Norah is a teen comedy that adults can enjoy. The screenplay, by Lorene Scafaria, manages to be smart and sophisticated, the comedy dry and understated.
02/05/09
The chief running gag, about as funny as a weeping sore, concerns a piece of chewing gum.
02/05/09
Although Nick & Norah is episodic and uneven, it does have considerable charm.
02/05/09
Filled with likeable characters, smart dialogue and cool indie music, it's good natured, hilarious and an outstanding romantic comedy that makes you wish you could be there.
01/31/09
All is forgiven in a wild money shot defining moment, when passion blooms in stereo off camera, as a studio hideaway's flashing voice level meters dance around, in synch with sex. A match ultimately made in digital heaven.
01/31/09
They pull off the blend of wide-eyed earnestness and sarcasm, but it’s unlikely teens or adults will relate to the 2D characters.
01/30/09
The music’s great, if predictable, and the talented young cast give it their all. We just wish that Cera would try something new.
01/30/09
Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist takes everything you loved in three decades of teenage romance and twists it into something unrecognisably desperate and exploitative.
01/30/09
Could have been Ferris Bueller's Night Out but it's not even close.
01/30/09
This music-powered hipster romance is as simple and undemanding as a three-chord pop song. It’s as corny as rhyming “moon” with “June”.
01/30/09
So-so comedy.
01/30/09
We allow the movie its fantasy of first love, if not its pretence of indie credibility.
