Title: Wasted Effort
Review: Everything about this film says laziness: an inane script, laissez-faire direction, ad-libbed dialogue. Woody apparently thinks anything that comes out of his mouth is funny, and whereas that may once have been true, here most of his lines are trivial palaver. By the end of the film you're even sick of the soundtrack, an incongruent jazz standard played ad nauseum.This is chasms away from Allen's best work. Don't waste your time.
