Woody Allen

It's my first movie by Woody Allen, and I really love this particular one. I am definitely looking forward to watching his other works. The dialogue and the monologues are just brilliant. They just make me smile. Annie and Alvy are such a cute couple, and I love their conversations and their chemistry. Alvy is also so pessimistic yet so lovable. And the montage works perfectly fine for the ending.

I recommend this film to all movie lovers. All of us watch movies just to forget about the sometimes harsh reality for a couple of hours, and that's why Cecilia, our lovable protagonist, looks forward to going to the nearby theatres almost every night. The concept is ludicrous but still pretty original, and Woody Allen does it perfectly with tons of hilarious lines and scenes. The depressing ending is a risky move but it still works.

This cheerful and endearing musical film will keep both Woody Allen fans and musical aficionados smiling from the beginning to the end with the simple plot, the special tribute to Groucho Marx and the wonderful musical numbers. And it never takes itself seriously. It almost feels like Woody Allen is also poking fun at the musical genre itself with the musical sequences with the spirits and with the medical staff at the hospital.

I love the conversations and monologues about philosophy, sexuality, relationships, films, life in general and other little things in life that are evident in Woody Allen's romantic comedies. I also love Woody Allen's recurring neurotic character. Manhattan is one of his masterpieces, an exceptional film of intellect and pure brilliance.

Although there is too much profanity in it especially for a Woody Allen film, I personally think this is one of his greatest films. This vulgar yet somewhat touching film is full of style and substance, and it uses flashbacks and scenes from both Harry's real world and his fictional works in a very creative way. The great use of jump cuts in this film should also be noted.

Woody Allen still manages to include some witty humor in this drama film. He also seems to have a pessimistic yet somewhat realistic philosophy and view of life. I guess sometimes doing good deeds don't give much rewards and unfortunately, sometimes people who commit unforgivable crimes just get away with what they have done. In Allen's perspective, it seems to be all about luck, free will, and chances.

Diane Keaton plays an adventurous, curious, and quirky character, which is quite different from her roles in other Woody Allen films. Like Allen's greatest comedy films Deconstructing Harry and The Purple Rose of Cairo, this comedy film has both laugh-out-loud moments and hilarious one-liners. It somehow reminds me of the Alfred Hitchcock film Rear Window and also has a reference to the great film Double Indemnity.

This romantic comedy film by Woody Allen is about the metaphysical and spiritual world as well as love, sex and relationships as the three couples of this ensemble cast talk about sexuality and philosophy. In a somewhat humorous way, it shows the possibilities of a world beyond the one we live in. It might not be as witty as Annie Hall but it is still as humorous as any other romantic comedy by Woody Allen.

I think that Woody Allen is amazing when he works with romantic comedies. This film that looks into the lives of three sisters and their husbands and ex-husbands might not be as spectacular as Annie Hall but it is still an extraordinary film by itself. Woody Allen's character is hilarious as usual, and the three sisters are all so lovable. The script is what makes this film truly work.

Yes, it is very unpredictable and not as witty as Woody Allen's other films but it is not as terrible as I thought it would be, and this is a magnum opus compared to Woody Allen's Match Point. This film shows that Woody Allen is still capable of creating a good story and humorous dialogues.

The protagonist goes from being obsessed to being desperate, and he is completely insane. The film has an interesting introduction and premise but a very slow pace, and it takes too long before it actually becomes interesting. The climax and the ending actually save this film from being entirely bad. But I don't like the ending. I just thought there would be justice.

I am not fond of Sydney Pollack's character here, and I don't like the fact that he and his ex-wife suddenly get back together again. Liam Neeson's character is more gentle and more sensitive. This is probably one of my least favorite films by Woody Allen beside Match Point but it's still not that bad.

This is probably my least favorite Woody Allen film, and I usually love most of his films. Most of the scenes only contain fans constantly bugging the protagonist, and unlike his other films, this one is very confusing as it abruptly goes back and forth to different times and relationships of Sandy Bates. I don't usually say this in a review but I think this film is a little bit pretentious and self-indulgent.
