Woody's best 80's movie, 26 August 2001
Author: MisterWhiplash from United States

Woody Allen makes movies that will sometimes be partial duds with great lines and characters, and then he'll make an all around great movie like Manhattan, Sleeper or Deconstructing Harry. In the 80's, he had a period where most of his films were less than great (Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy and September for example). But this is the gem in that period, a comedy with great acting matched with a finely tunes screenplay with the usual neurotic characters (Woody, of course, and also Caine in a awesome, Oscar Winning role) and somewhat normal ones. Often hilarious, a little bittersweet, and in the end it shows that it is a worthy Allen picture. A+
