BREEZY BIT OF FLUFF...MEDIOCRE WOODY...REGURGITATION...FEEDING OFF THE FEEDBACK LOOP
26 April 2024
A Walk in Central Park for the 4 Time Oscar Winner, Soft-Stepping Around the "Big Apple" Involving Trade-Mark "Romantic Rallies" and "Back Alley" Misunderstandings, Coupled with Class-Angst and Intellectual Snobbery.

The Film is Much More Enjoyable as Chunks of Insight than the Whole Picture that Comes Across as "Not So Much".

Most of the Cast do Nothing More than Extended Cameos and None Make Much of an Impression, although the 3 Leads do Shine with Selena Gomez and Elle Fanning Competing to Steal the Show...It's a Tie.

The Film Looks Gorgeous with Warm Hues Contrasting the Drizzle.

But the Movie Lacks Allen's Razor-Wit and One-Liners, in Fact, at Times, it can be Rather Dull. But Redeems Itself Now and Then.

It's an OK, Lightweight, Pretty Thin Screenplay for Woody Allen, who Not Only Regurgitates, but Seems Half-Interested.

Still, there is Enough Talent Remaining in the Reserve-Tank to Present a Rather Whimsical Muse on "Old-Timey" Movies, Piano Bars, Popular Tunes, with the Film Leaning Heavy on the Nostalgic.

Worth a Watch.
