Great fun, 20 January 2003
7/10
Author: bsinc from Ljubljana, Slovenia

Wow, this movie was really a step forward from Woody Allen' s previous work. It's much funnier than "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex" and is a great satire. The best parts are definitely the ones where Woody is dressed up as a robot. They're just hilarious. Diane Keaton is also very funny when she tries to speak like a jew. A good comedy that ends too soon. 7/10
