The film follows the marital and dating lives of three men and three women who unknowingly form a tangled web of relationships. Interspersing "man on the street" interviews with scenes from the six characters' lives, the film weaves a humorous and biting commentary on the game of love -- easy to start, hard to finish.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Though well-acted, Sidewalks of New York generally comes off as a second-rate Woody Allen film. The characters seem self-absorbed, the problems trite.

While it may not have anything new to say about love, life, or even New York, it's entertaining enough to keep you occupied while you're waiting for Woody to return to form. Go to Full Review
Jay Boyar Orlando Sentinel Nov 30, 2001
If Sidewalks is still a pretty hard film to laugh at, that's not because it stirs horrific memories. The laughs don't come easily because the humor often feels forced. Go to Full Review
Brian D. Johnson Maclean's Magazine Oct 30, 2019
Another deft ensemble piece. Directed by Edward Burns, it's like a (good) Woody Allen picture, with Stanley Tucci as the cradle-robbing creep, and Heather Graham in the role of a prim wife. Go to Full Review

Though the direction is lacking, "Sidewalks of New York" is a charming movie with great characters and a sharp script. Go to Full Review

Luke S Mar 7, 2018 Love edward burns as a actor but the movie was childishly whiny and annoying. Too many games played by actors and alot of whiny teenage behavior and contradictions. Edward burns character was The only good thing about the movie. See more
Rey W Jan 14, 2018 Terrible movie. The couples are so unrealistic and have no chemistry (Stanley Tucci and Heather Graham? didn't work. Rosario Dawson and David Krumholtz? not believable they were ever together, and they were both 22 or 23 at the time in real life, not believable they were a divorced couple). The dialogue is vapid and contrived. Also completely unrealistic is the real estate - they all have oversized, sprawling apartments in prime locations, even the diner waitress (Brittany Murphy). As a long time New Yorker, I recognized nothing of my city or its people in this movie. Sorry Ed Burns, better luck next time. See more
