Explores a comedian and his relationship with a girl

Rating: 8/10 (13 May 2016)

I really enjoyed this movie, although I must say, I felt slightly disappointed. I think it is likely because the comedy community hypes Woody Allen to the point of unrealistic expectations. There were some instances of humor I didn't enjoy, certain one liners seemed somewhat dated and corny for example. However, there is another side to the movie's humor...Allen seems to write a kind of depressed nihilism into the character that I found amusing. It perfectly represents the personality of most comedians. A need to turn to jokes because of their miserable outlook. But there is a part of all of us that can relate to this.
