They already have templates for their reviews it feels like. I personally love 4 of his 90"s films: Husbands and Wives Bullets Over Broadway Deconstructing Harry Sweet and Lowdown and I really liked: Mighty Aphrodite Everyone Says I Love You Heck, in the 2000"s I"ve liked Match Point and ....sorta liked Anything Else and Melinda and Melinda. And like you said in your previous post how many other film makers are pumping out this much material in their 70"s! You should revisit that idea :) Woody deserves the respect That is what bothers me about most critics. They already have templates for their reviews it feels like.

It was one of my favorite films of 2005. He's made some crap over the past ten years, but I don't think it's nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be. In 2005, before Match Point premiered at Cannes and rehabed his late career a bit, I wrote a brief defense of his 90s films: http://www.cinematical.com/2005/05/04/give-woody-allen-a-break/ Maybe I'll revisit that idea in more depth here at Spout sometime soon.
