A great way to turn up missing!

Rating: Null/10 (27 March 2015)

I'm surprised about Woody Allen shooting another movie in Europe. Up until his last few he shot exclusively in New York with the occasional scene Los Angeles. I liked this movie but found a few things very irritating about it. For starters, they meet this guy, and within five minutes the one decides to get on a small plane and fly away for the weekend. She is either incredibly stupid or blind or something as this is a great way to disappear into the slave trade or turn up dead. Secondly, the Vicky character - wow, engaged,, still sleeps with the guy, and basically screws over her new husband. Nothing redeeming there, but at the end she says she is 'over it', thus eliminating all her guilt. Finally the narration in this film was way over the top. I know Woody likes to use narration in most of his films, but in some scenes it was like watching those television shows that have audio for the visually impaired. I don't need to have a narrator describing what I'm looking at. For example, you see Christina on her own, walking down a street and taking photos, and the narrator says, "Christin spent the day taking photos." Well,, no kidding! I found the narration very frustrating. You could eliminate totally and not miss it at all. But all in all I did like the film.
