Match Point / UK / 2005

I’m a Woody Allen fan from way back, enough to desperately try to find moments of interest in any of the films of the last few years. So, yes, it’s a relief that this is Allen’s best film in years. A retread of part of the plot from Crimes and Misdemeanors; a straight drama with almost no jokes. Weaknesses, yes – the “luck” motif is banal, the rutting in the rain ridiculous – but it’s still a thoroughly enjoyable film.
