If you don't know by now, "Match Point" is such a ripoff of "Crimes and Misdemeanors" that Woody oughta be censured for plaigiarising his own work. If this man, admittedly a cinematic genius, can't come up with something more original, then he needs to follow Paris Hilton into the pop music genre. How hard could it be to digress, if even so slightly, into a different story arc than the well-beaten trail he's already traveled? I've always waited impatiently for the Woodman's next entry in the cinema pantheon, but if this is the best he can do, maybe he should just pack it in.
Woody, it's time to stop borrowing from yourself. If Paul Simon can do it, so can you. Come up with something truly original, and your fans will follow. If not - I can't even imagine an "if not." Please...PLEASE put your thinking cap on. It's not too late.
