Someone in the comments said "flat tone" and that just describes it perfectly. For a romantic movie, it's just passionless. Stuff like the lead character getting married and having a child is just stated flatly in narration.
Really, the poor romance movie gets in the way of a possibly interesting comic gangster movie.
Terrific production design. The movie looks amazing but story goes nowhere and Jesse Eisenberg plays a dreadfull character. Forgetable Woody Allen movie
Ok so this might be an unpopular opinion, but although Kristen Stewart did act well in this picture, clearly much better than usual, what made her so irresistible? How could she ever be preferable to the stunning sweetness of Blake Lively?
Opinions I can get behind:
-The movie was astoundingly aesthetically pleasing; I thought the lighting, locations, and costumes were all brilliantly done.
-I was definitely watching Woody Allen in a Jesse Eisenberg costume.
