Slapstick combined with razor sharp dialogue.
The film is pure magic, its my favourite comedy and I think it is in my top three Allen films of all time.
See it if you like the Marx brothers, Woody is all of them rolled into one in this film, it's utter genius. Woody also plays the jazz music which scores the film, and you know you're in for a treat when hearing the first few bars makes you smile. There aren't many comedies out there which could top this in terms of low budget, gags-per-second ratio, music, and sheer quality.
If a film could save your life (as in Hannah and her sisters), it's this one.
