Mate P ***SLIGHT SPOILERS*** Annie Hall is a funny and efficient film with great acting performances. The writing is very clear and efficient. The characters are layered and well-written. Alvy Singer doesn't know how to react to certain situations, but he is so funny that women easily fell in love with him. I don't usually watch films where the main character is a comedian, because I fear that they wouldn't be funny, but that's not the case here. This movie is so funny, all of his jokes are great. I also don't often like when a character speaks directly to the audience, but that totally worked for me here. Annie Hall is also a great character with a nice arc. The directing is great, I love the long takes. The cinematography is varied with lots of different type of shots. The editing is extraordinary with use of split screens, mixing timelines and so on. The cast is great, I was shocked to see Paul Simon in the end credits. I didn't recognize him, but in hindsight it's obvious it was him. The acting performances from Woody Allen and Diane Keaton are terrific. Annie Hall is a comedy classic that showcases many different types of great editing and cinematography treats. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/09/25 Full Review Stephen L Woody Allen’s Annie Hall remains one of the most original, sharply funny films of the 20th century. It’s packed with layered dialogue, lightning-fast pacing and subtle comic brilliance. From subtitles that reveal inner thoughts to childhood classmates reimagined through an adult lens, Allen breaks the fourth wall with ease and charm. The structure is fluid, the characters feel lived-in and the humor is built on nuance, irony and implication. Diane Keaton delivers an iconic performance, and Allen’s own portrayal of Alvy Singer still resonates. A masterpiece that rewards both first-time viewers and rewatchers alike. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/24/25 Full Review I. S. W Annie Hall is one of those movies that are tight and flawless (like Terminator2, Citizen Kane and even Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom). This movie flows seamlessly from one scene to the next without a wasted word or move. You want to be on the edge of your seat not to miss a single nuance or gesture. A positively hilarious romp into neuroses that so many people have. Maybe we're all just normal, after all! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/06/25 Full Review Bradley S Allens Masterpiece conjures a feeling of being, just as it's meant to be. A wonderful film in every aspect. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/05/25 Full Review Russ G Hate to admit it, but I saw this in the theatre when we wouldn't miss a pic from Mr. Allen. It's kind of fun spotting all the actors doing cameos and bit parts in it; a young Jeff Goldblum on the phone to his guru saying: "I forgot my Mantra!" Christopher Walken plays his usual creep; they spelled his name incorrectly in the closing credits! How'd he get Paul Simon in the cast? Seventies Vibes aplenty and skewers NYC, LA, Jewish culture, shrinks, film critics, sexual insecurity, etc. Constant breaking of 4th wall is brilliantly done. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Alec B Still one of the greatest comedies ever made. Effortlessly funny and perfectly paced.
