Good, but probably overrated

Rating: 6/10 (14 February 2004)

I am an ardent fan of Woody Allen, and I think most of his films are underrated. However, this is one of the few movies he did where the critical response was probably a bit too favorable. Not to say that this isn't a good movie, but Allen has made many better films, including "Love and Death", "Interiors", and the very comparable "Manhattan." Still, who am I to say that popular opinion is wrong? Allen deserves acclaim; this just wouldn't have been my pick as his "masterpiece".
