Good. But..... (some kind of spoilers)

Rating: 7/10 (26 August 2008)

Before I launch into my diatribe about the last part of the movie, let me first say that 2/3rds of this movie is the best Woody Allen I've seen in a long time. Of course I'm partial to the comedies, and this is a serious movie from the start, I can't remember laughing once,still this a very good film. However I find it hard to believe what happens in the last third of the film, the main character just didn't seem like the kind of person who would commit the ultimate crime . The acting ranges from pretty inept Jonathan Rhys Rees Ruse (although Woody's script has to take most of the blame) to hemispherical brilliant- Scarlet Johannsen (again Woodrow's script can take a bow here). The suspense actually comes in the middle of the film and although it kind of builds to a climax, depending on your suspension of belief you'll either belief or not belief. That is the ques-ton. Whether it is notable in the mind blah blah bing bong.....
