- Semi-serious collage of jokes and bits of technique, some of the former very funny and some of the latter very successful. For no very good reason it hit the box-office spot and turned its creator, of whom it is very typical, from a minority performer to

  More Clever than Thought-provoking
  
  Much of the rapid dialogue/monolgue is more eruditely clever rather than expressly funny but there was never any shortage of material for comment. The character... read more »

  Nice work, Woody!
  
  I gave this four stars because at the end of the movie I realised it had kept me enthralled throughout, despite its simple plot. Woody is funny as ever and ... read more »

  Woody when he buzzed
  
  To be honest, I can't remember this arriving. I do have it in my collection, though, and watched it on a double bill with Alan's Manhattan.

  Overly intellectual, self-indulgent navel gazing
  
  I had heard a lot of good things about this film, but I was left cold by it. I can see that it would have been fresh and innovative in the mid '70s, but it ... read more »

  Loved it. I don't know why Diane Keaton got Oscar for this as she is not as engaging as Woody Allen but it doesn't matter here. It is very funny and ... read more »

  Brilliant! One of the funniest films i've ever seen. And probably the best Woody Allen film. It's a classic for a reason.

  Dull
  
  Woody Allen does what Woody Allen does, self obsession, intense dull periods, repeated lines that track from film to film. One to miss

  Excellent film, Woody Allen at his best
  
  Clearly a forgotten classic. Too many quotable scenes and lines to mention! And Paul Simon is in it. And Jeff Goldblum too, albeit briefly.
