Nope.You don't like Annie Hall, omg!!!
I just get tired of seeing him play the same character in every movie- the 'oh woe is me, my life sicks, things would be better if only.........'. Not my cup of tea.Well, alright then.
Woody Allen's one of those you-either-love-him-or-you-hate-him people, I think. Annie Hall is a great movie, though, imho. His crowning achievement.I just get tired of seeing him play the same character in every movie- the 'oh woe is me, my life sicks, things would be better if only.........'. Not my cup of tea.
I can't stand Woody Allen movies (only Purple Rose of Cairo was bearable, and that was because of Jeff Daniels). You are not alone.Nope.
Have you seen Sleeper? It's a very early film of his and, as I stated earlier, it's the only one I like. It's got some serious laugh-out-loud moments in it.I can't stand Woody Allen movies (only Purple Rose of Cairo was bearable, and that was because of Jeff Daniels). You are not alone.
I don't think so. I do remember seeing Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about Sex at the drive in with my parents when I was about 4 (lol--I think they assumed the kidlets would be asleep before the second feature started. Oh those silly, silly people…).Have you seen Sleeper? It's a very early film of his and, as I stated earlier, it's the only one I like. It's got some serious laugh-out-loud moments in it.
Being a Woody Allen fan I've seen Sleeper a number of times. I've seen Bananas as many times. Both are really clever and funny.Have you seen Sleeper? It's a very early film of his and, as I stated earlier, it's the only one I like. It's got some serious laugh-out-loud moments in it.
Well, that explains everything about you!!!!!!!I don't think so.

I am so glad you took that the right way! As soon as I hit the 'post reply' button I had an awful feeling in my gut. You rock!!
We went to this too. Really thought it was funny. We plan to go to the Godzilla Rifftrax in August.
My Cousin Vinnie for the millionth time. Still as hilarious as it was when it was released. Marisa Tomei so deserved her Oscar for that performance.
The Negotiator, with Kevin Spacey and Samuel L Jackson. Real good suspension thriller.

I keep saying I'm going to go to Lucy. Haven't made it yet.What a pleasure that movie was, with the karate kid in there and all. If you're a heterosexual male, I don't know how you could not fall in love with Marisa Tomei and her character in that one. Priceless.
A taut, well-done yarn. Grandma kinda feels about Kevin Spacey and Sam Jackson the way I feel about Marisa Tomei, so it was a good night, movie-wise.
I don't usually hate him, but I rarely like him. Mostly, he's tedious. I had remarkably few laughs through Sleeper, was charmed by a few moments in Annie Hall but was overall unimpressed, and Everything You Wanted to Know About Sex etc. was a dreary mess, although I thought Gene Wilder was kinda funny being wild and wooly. It was at that point that I thought I'd give up on Mr. Allen. But based on reviews (the reviewers like Woody Allen far more than the public), we picked up Deconstructing Harry. We made it through about 15 minutes, felt our will to live start to evaporate, and turned it off.
We're pondering Lucy. We've heard enough snorts and cheers that it's got us intrigued, and we liked the trailer.
When I don't like Woody Allen films, I really loathe them: Annie Hall, Sleeper, A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy, Deconstructing Harry, Hannah and Her Sisters.I can't stand Woody Allen movies (only Purple Rose of Cairo was bearable, and that was because of Jeff Daniels). You are not alone.
I liked this film and thought Cusack was the stand-out in it, kinda like how Viola Davis completely stole Doubt with only 12 lines and left me gutted.Kinda generic "timepiece" movie, but "The Butler" on Showtime/Demand isn't bad. I thought John Cusack had a great small part as a young Nixon. Oprah was good. No need to name them all, but a lot of good bit characters that I didn't see coming.

When I like his films, I either like them or really love them: Sweet and Lowdown, Midnight in Paris, Scoop, Manhattan, Bullets Over Broadway, Crimes and Misdemeanors, Manhattan Murder Mystery, Vicky Christina Barcelona.
I loved the cast of Vicky Christina Barcelona, but felt they were wasted on a pointless, meandering story.
