I Thought It Was Fantastic

Rating: 10/10 (8 October 2012)

Let me just say, it is refreshing to see that people are once again putting heart, soul, and character back into movies. I am a huge fan of Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Picasso, and many of the other figures that appeared in this movie, and I was happy to see them portrayed how I felt to be effectively. Even as a Conservative, I was able to laugh at some of the jokes at the Republican Party's expense, and the tasteless view of the world Gil's fiancé and in-laws were supposed to have as Right-Wingers. It didn't deter the magic of the movie for me at all, and goes to show that even though I might completely disagree with Woody Allen politically, there is no denying his true genius in cinema. Very funny, very charming, and somewhat inspiring. I could see myself in Gil more than once, and it felt good to have some of my closeted inner feelings about my own generation expressed on the silver screen. Great movie, would recommend it to anyone for an easy and fun viewing. 9/10.
