This movie had a great concept, great actors, and a good pace to it. Though at parts it got a bit dull it was still great overall. A wonderful movie to watch once but not a movie to watch over and over again. And don't expect a happy ending, this isn't the movies, after all.

Woody Allen never ceases to amaze me. His imagination and humor are so admirable. This film is so unusual and incredibly creative. Enthralling even. It never fails to fascinate and in many ways it is brilliant. My only gripe is the two leads. I think Mia Farrow and Jeff Daniels are too bland, better casting would have helped. The rest of the cast is terrific though, especially Zoe Caldwell.

This is an excellent comic-fantasy from the mind of Woody Allen. This could be, in my opinion, Allen's best film ever. The cast is marvelous. Highly recommended for those who like Woody Allen.
