Just finished watching this, and found it decent, but hardly the hilarious masterpiece I was led to believe it was.
I personally prefer Allen's films where he combines comedy and drama more than his light/slapstick comedies from the early 70's.

It's a good film. I happen to like it a lot. A respectable comedy.
shareAgreed. The ending is so obviously rushed too.
shareBeauty is in the eye of the beholder...
There are some suave and subtle messages in the movie, but the movie has dated. Modern viewers won't get the message, or misperceive it, or let the foreground antics completely distract from the message...
I do prefer his slapstick stuff, though - "Annie Hall" was a turning point, and it is an all-time classic, but his later stuff just lacks the hilarious sparkle. He's a genius, but he could get away with more thanks to the injection of humor.
The only message is that men and women will always be men and women no matter how many years pass.
share...and found it decent, but hardly the hilarious masterpiece I was led to believe...Same here. I thought it was amusing and entertaining, but hardly a masterpiece.
