my rating | my thoughtsThis movie portrays exactly how it is to simply be a lucky man. I very much enjoyed the storyline and the twist; that I didn't see coming. It was very original and Woody Allen always amazes me with fresh new ideas. This movie was released quite awhile back but it was only recently that I came upon it, I am happy I did. I really enjoyed the sound track in this film, it gave the film a sort of elegance. I think it was very easy to identify and feel empathetic towards both Noel and Chris. I loved trying to uncover who Chris really was, I still find myself contemplating on that matter. Was he a sociopath? a social climber? a reckless individual who wanted something better? From the very beginning I felt myself drawn to him but near the end I no longer liked him but was intrigued and puzzled by his motives. The twist in the end was very thrilling and unexpected. I do recommend this film if your in the mood some thing abit different. |
