Plot:
Alice is one of Woody Allen's more grounded whimsies, though viewers with a low tolerance for feyness might miss it. Here goes Mia Farrow again as a nattering Manhattanite with a girlie-girlie ...( read more

What a strange movie. For the most part, I didn't like it. I decided Mia Farrow is best when she doesn't have to carry an entire movie on her shoulders. It's dull at points, but the ending is surprisingly thouching. I only got a couple chuckles in.
Light hearted and comedic on the surface, Allen taps into the ultimate human need to find a purpose in one's life. In his usual light-hearted style, he draws attention to societal greed and superficiality in a way that is comedic and, therefore, non-preachy. Mia Farrow is wonderful as the pampered housewife who finds herself less and less satisfied with material comforts and begins to question her shallow lifestyle.
A charming little gem. Allen's feminist film tells a whimsical tale of Alice - a nod to Alice in Wonderland. Mia Farrow is completely endearing.
What originally started as one of my least favorite Woody Allen movies (the first 30 minutes) turned into a real gem. Personally, I don't like Woody's movies that have upper crust people with upper crust problems, but Woody addresses that with the introduction of Dorothy.
While a bit jumbled and having some real flaws, Allen has a playfulness in this movie that can only be found in his creations.
the plot was interesting, mixing real life, dreams and fantasies of alice. i'm actually a big fan of mia farrow's work so that did help, but it's not my favorite from allen. it doesn't stand out by itself compared to many other film he made before.
Fun and magic Allen's film. Mia Farrow is lovely as usual and the supporting cast is terrific (I love William Hurt).
I don't know what took me so long to see this movie. It was a wonderful film filled with much soul searching by the character played by Mia Farrow; who is aided in that soul searching by an "Herbal" doctor played by Keye Luke..How many of us would be lined up to see this doctor if we could. This movie was clever, funny, thoughtful and smart all the way around. Mia shined in this movie ..and..if you are going to consider an affair - Joe Mantegna would be a good choice to have it with I'm thinking! He was great in his role as well. Her domineering husband played perfectly by William Hurt. Great cast and fun movie.
A clever little fantasy. Its not the best Allen but it takes an advantage of its premise. Mia Farrow is certainly good at playing a disaffected yuppie.
Yesterday I watched my 3rd Woody Allen film of the past few days, Alice.
It was mediocre at best. I could watch most of it, but I got pretty bored by the end and I was just sort of waiting for it to be over. Mia Farrow was alright I guess. In general the whole cast was just ok. The kids should have been featured more, in my opinion, it would have made the ending a far more important point then it was. All the weird magical stuff was underwhelming. Either go for the full-on weird magical circumstances, or don't. Just don't muddle around in between, because then it all just seems out of place. I enjoyed the cameos from Bernadette Peters and Alec Baldwin.
The Opinion: Boring.
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Alice (1990)" !
