other than terrible female lines, this movie have one of the best endings ever.
Woody Allen makes irrelevant middle class middle aged men problems look like the only problems. It's like when you complain you broke your phone in an accident where everyone died but you. It is so disconnected from reality that it bothers me.
Drawn to this movie by its cast, I almost stopped watching it when the opening credits revealed it was a Woody Allen film. Perhaps I should have gone with that initial reaction. This movie is so verbose it drowns in its own philosophical meanderings between thought and action. Despite a great cast, I give this movie a 5 (meh) out of 10. [Crime Drama]
So slow. Usually love watching Emma Stone, but this plot was just uninteresting and drags on.
Slight spoiler? I quite liked the most of it. Some parts of me were against, some for. Great acting by Phoenix and Stone, chemistry and feeling were there, a typically cliched situation was kept from being so for so long. The end, the very end, so quick, felt a little rushed, at the same time, not really but still.
See this article for an explanation of how Woody Allen gets such great actors to star in such crappy movies.

Slow film. Background music is annoying. Good acting though.
Emma one of my favourites ever one extra star for her
What a annoying jazz that plays all the way. We all have to admit that this movie actually sucks.
As Allen gets older he seems to be more... direct?... in getting to the philosophical or moral question that is at the heart of the film. Once he gets there it was a decent film with an interesting core. follow me at https://IHateBadMovies.com

One star extra for Emma Stone.
An existential Woody Allen movie (no surprises there), this isn't bad but is far from his best. It won't add meaning to your life but it is certainly watchable.

Slow film, tedious and often inaccurate in his philosophical treatise. We can save the actors, very good, but it is probably one of the lowest points of Woody Allen, probably without ideas from some time.
