I hope Woody Allen never stops making movies. Even though I know who all of these actors are the characters they're playing are so well fleshed out that I actually believe what I'm watching is real. Cate Blanchett will win an Oscar for this, but I would like to see Woody Allen get (*another) Best Original Screenplay, because it's his words they're saying. If we now live in a world where Andrew Dice Clay might be nominated for Best Supporting Actor, Woody clearly deserves an award for somehow making that possible.

3.5 Stars (out of 5)

*Woody Allen has won three Best Screenplay Oscars already: Annie Hall, Hannah and Her Sisters, and Midnight in Paris.
