Awkward

Rating: 1/10 (25 June 2006)

Horrible movie. The scene where Chris (Jonathan Meyers) meets Nola (Scarlet Johansson) in the pool room has to be one of the worst introductions on film I've ever seen. It's as if there was an editing decision to remove the part where these two knew each other in a former life (which, for those yet to see the movie, is not something that is true). This is the first Woody Allen film I have seen, and I was really expecting something much better. I've read the reviews and I can't imagine the intellect level of someone who gives this anything over a 5. This movie was simply a good idea that was rushed into production. How this can earn a 7.9 here is beyond me.
