Pros: The best romantic comedy in the last 30 years. Cons: absolutely none.
Annie Hall is the quintessential Woody Allen film. Though he might have dismissed it himself at times, the public embraced this film more than any other he has ever released (with the possible exception of Hannah and Her Sisters), and it is...

Pros: some funny moments and fun cameos Cons: mostly I found it rather boring
I write this review with trepidation because I am about to confess that I was not impressed with Annie Hall. I've heard the movie is iconic, and a post-viewing investigation revealed that it has an average rating of five stars here and an ...

Pros: Great storytelling, talented ensemble Cons: None
When I first bought a VCR back in 1983, I made "Annie Hall" one of the first tapes I added to my collection. I'm working on my third VCR, but I haven't worn out this tape yet. Every time I watch this movie, I find something new to admire about...

Pros: Direction/Script, Locations, NYC, Look, Music, & Cast including Allen, Keaton, & THE GREAT Christopher Walken. Cons: Not Enough Walken & Star Wars Fans Hate This Movie.
Throughout the late 60s and the 1970s, Woody Allen has made a career out of playing a neurotic, Jewish nerd who is smart but often questions things. Many of those films were often very funny but underneath the humor was a lot of questions about sex, ...

Pros: Some good lines, Decent direction Cons: Characters are tough to like, Poor on-screen chemistry, Incoherent narrative, Largely not funny.
A few weeks back, I found myself at a screening of "Julie & Julia" (reviewed at: http://www.epinions.com/conten

) and the one lasting feeling it left me with was the desire to accomplish something I set ...

by ChrisJarmick - Top 50, Oct 03 '00
Pros: Laugh out loud comedy and awkward romantic comedy. Imitated, stolen from, never topped. Cons: Some (just a few)of the jokes feel a bit stale--even though they were once original and fresh
Annie Hall was a big departure for Woody, because it was the first of his ‘serious' and romantic comedies and marked the turn away from his ‘earlier funnier picture' and toward his more autobiographical contemplative films. It was (and still is) his...

by BrianKoller - Top 50, Sep 18 '99
Pros: originality, writing, Diane Keaton Cons: Woody Allen's compulsive/inferiority schtick
"Annie Hall" is a very good comedy about relationships, from a realistic rather than romantic viewpoint. The film has many quirky and original comic techniques, all of which work. While not Allen's best film ("Manhattan" is even...

Pros: very well-written, brilliantly filmed Cons: none
I find that people either love or hate Woody Allen, no in betweens. I happen to think he's brilliant. Say what you will about his personal life, I could care less. He's still one of the greatest film makers of our time, and he deserves a lot more...

Pros: all the jokes Cons: the boring opening credits
If ever there was anyone skilled at taking the little things in life-- relationships, death, traumatizing childhoods, standing in line at the movies near a guy who just won't shut up-- and making them funny, it's Woody Allen, and this is the film that...

Pros: Very funny and realistic Cons: Plot is a little confused; direction style somewhat overdone
Woody Allen's "Annie Hall" was one of the first romantic comedies to focus on the more awkward side of relationships, rather than the happy, glamorous side. It is a movie that is realistic and often extremely funny, but also somewhat undone by...

Pros: Innovative techniques, trendsetting, hilarious, Allen and Keaton together again Cons: beginning is a little confusing
Although "Manhattan" is considered Woody Allen's best film, I'd probably say that "Annie Hall" is the better film. It was a slight different method amongst Allen's usual filmaking approach, and involved many breakthrough techniques...

Pros: good acting, good dialogue Cons: none
Annie Hall completely amazed me with its quick wit, humorous anecdotes
and its message. I felt it was great film in the way it presented Annie and Alvy as a mismatched, but lovable couple. I thought that Woody Allen
accomplished this by his...

Pros: A never ending stream of acidic, brilliant one-liners Cons: Allen never made another movie this good
I saw Annie Hall before I'd seen the rest of Woody Allen's films and I saw it again after. I appreciated it much more the second time, so I decided to re-review it. The first time, I said, "This is pretty much the best Woody Allen movie you'll ever...

Pros: Woody Allen style humor, creative use of film-making and story... Cons: Frank discussions about the negative sides of relationships ...
What we have here is a romantic comedy. Im not sure that Id call it all that romantic, however, due to the realistic ending. But the film is humorous with Woody Allens dry style of humor, and is at least about a romance, even if the film ...
