Release Year: 1971
Review: In general, I'm a fan of Woody Allen, and this movie was a moderate showing of his talent at best. I always feel that Woody Allen films have a sort of stand up comedian feel to them, with well thought out humor and witty dialog. This film differently had bits of that, especially in the beginning. What degraded this film for me was the slapstick nature of it which fell flat. There were some scenes that were just blatently obvious and corny with the silly music to boot. In all, the movie has some great scenes, and is geniuinly funny at parts, but falls well short of Woody Allen's best work.
Rating: 3/5
