Lost in The Multiplex

Date: June 2012

At the age of 77, Woody Allen remains one of Hollywood's most prolific writer/directors, producing a film ever year... take that Terrence Malick! He's also notoriously publicity-shy but Curb Your Enthusiasm director Bob Weide has managed to get unparalleled access and the result is an affectionate tribute to Allen's long career from stand-up comic to filmmaker - unfortunately, it is also one that shies away from asking the really tough questions that could have made for a truly interesting film.

I don't have any phobias per se but my only fear right now is that I might see this film again because AFFOE is without a doubt one of the worst films I've seen this year - and possibly ever.

It might sound harsh to open a review with such a damning statement but I honestly struggled to think of any positive aspects of this fantastic mess of a production.

Dig in.
