Match Point (2005)
3/10
Has it dated itself?
21 June 2023
I can't recall the first time I saw this but I believe it was close to its original release date. It didn't leave much of an impression circa 2005, but I loved Scarlett and wanted to see anything she was in.

Watching this in 2023 I have a largely different impression. It actually boggles me that this was / is Woody Allen's favorite film he ever made.

I'm not one to say what's what because these people are doing and I'm just writing critique..... but that's also what this aspect of the app is for.

I found ALL of the acting to be awful, and I do believe a lot of it had to do with cadence, timing, and acting. The acting chemistry for all of the characters was not good. I didn't believe any of the "love" conversations. It felt like a B acting class.

The story could have been better and the acting phenomenally more so. That's my synopsis.
