Plot:
Hannah regularly meets with her sisters Holly and Lee to discuss the weeks' events. It's what they don't always tell each other that forms the film's various subplots. Hannah is married to rock-star m...( read more

One of Woody Allen's greatest ever. Amazing performances by Caine, Wiest and Allen himself. Wonderful screenplay. Just a great film.
woody allen can just about talk , so who the hell told him he could write/ act / direct is beyond me, they should be shot !! while woody is stood behind them!! problem solved!
I'm rather unimpressed by this movie and resent the fact that 'My Beautiful Laundrette' didn't get the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. Woody Allen does not impress me very much. I've never really understood his appeal. I can give him 'Annie Hall' and 'Everything...Sex...' and 'Love and Death' and maybe a couple of others.
witty, similar to Manhattan, not slapstick..once again its the script that draws the laughs...light..standard Woody...
a pleasantly unusual turn from Allen's usual zany style, but still with his trademark wit and spastic lightheartedness. brilliant, emotionally-driven storytelling that shows off the good that can come from everyday tragedy in the intertwined lives of many different people. splendid acting and character development as well. a touching, delightful film.
Woody Allen= flawless direction, amazingly real and entertaining writting, great cast choices (everyone does an excellent job) and a story that seems fresh even 20 years later that keeps you sticked to your seat the whole movie.
Micheal Caine gives an amazing performance and this is in my opinion one of the best things Allen has ever written.
While I've seen quite a few Woody Allen movies (thanx hubby) I've never been a huge fan. This one, however, is the best thing he's ever made (that I've seen at any rate). It's an insightful study of self-delusion, reality and everything in between. External life, internal life and interpersonal life in all it's rich, bizarre facets.
well to slow and to mush talking to them self's and to top it off they answer them selfs too.........should have expected that with Woody Allen.... so full of him self lol
A heartwarming comedy classic from Woody Allen. It has typical Allen idiosyncrasies, however, it is probably one of Allen's more accessible films for a wider audience.
With dynamite performances by Michael Caine and Dianne Weist, Allen explores the complications of sibling relationships. The underlying message speaks for one's search for love; people either look for it in the wrong places, or mistake lust for love, or not recognise it when they have it.
"Hannah and her Sisters" is the most beautiful film Woody Allen has ever made. It not only features flawless acting from the best cast he's assembled, but they count with an endlessly entertaining, perfectly knit script, which at the same time manages to be funny and quite philosophical. Allen's view of life is shown here quite directly, as he questions the very meaning of the world, the relationships that keep us here and decides that all of this shall be beyond our comprehension forever. How can one ever define whether God exists or not? Define love, our needs, our anguish? And in this film, Allen decides there's nothing he can do but rejoice in the exciting confusion of the world as it is. Yes, one will never get the whole meaning of life, but why not stop for a while to enjoy the company of such a n exciting group of characters (like this one, like our family, our friends)? Yes, there will be pain, there'll be enormous suffering we won't understand...but what would you trade it for? The film also discusses important topics like temporary happiness (addictions, sexual passion...) and the position of the artist, and if art is really worth anything. I would answer it does, since if art can give us such an opportunity like this one to reflect upon our lives and make it better, then it's definitely essential to the human experience. Above all, art is human. Love, time, God, happiness, they are all human as well and contribute to this beautiful building the world is. "Hannah and he Sisters", I am quite sure, is Woody Allen at his best.
I love the character of Allen as Mickey Sachs, a hypochondriac trying to find a purpose for his life and connection with spiritual faith. In this one Allen give us a lot of sub-plot, like always the dialogue flow perfectly, a film for philistine.-
Too me this is the very best Woody allen film. even better than Annie Hall. This film is not only perfect. A flawles blend of sweet drama and bitter commedy, it can also change your way of life. It changed mine.
Without a doubt, the best film that Woody Allen ever made. Diane Weist and Diane Keaton give outstanding performances that just inspire any film buff who has ever seen the film. The audiences were in tears at the end of the film.
Woody Allen's most novelistic film. Each chapter is a charming little jazz piece with hilarious characters who feel and act as if they should be in a novel.
Nice writing! Cool loop-story, with good relationships between the characters, and a nice roundabout ending.
Once you get past the gross 80sness of it all (i.e. it's dated) it's great. It's touching and hilarious. I was originally going to hang myself when Allen came on the screen, but the other plotlines grabbed me immediately, even if it leaked pretentiousness for a while. Michael Caine has probably never been better and Dianne Wiest was hilarious (namely during the flashback with her date with Allen.) The voiceovers are great and Allen spits out some great one-liners as his character becomes less and less annoying. Tons of great scenes and great performances.
Definitely one of his better movies. It's more hopeful than Manhattan and warmer than Annie Hall. The characters are all fascinating and it's satisfying to see it all somehow turn out in the end. I liked seeing how the individual stories connected. Everyone had a story that got to be told. Very good movie.
Woody's best work (I prefer Annie Hall, but if pressed I'd admit that this is objectively better). One of the best films of the 1980s.
