You may prefer Allen's dramas over his comedies but if it's an Allen's and is a comedy, the quality is there. I left the theater with a good feeling, all relaxed. Then I realized I could not tell to others what the theme of the film was. What a dumb I am! Obviously the theme of the film is ... is ... I can only presume that, from time to time, Allen endorses this need to let the audience not take him too seriously. Which, by the way, I believe it was his main goal. Other comedies of his might lead the spectator to think about some relevant theme, because of their acidness, but this one just flows by. I was unable to give it an applause, nor criticize it. At last, this was pure entertainment, though a good one! Just what the doctor recommended.
