I Don't Like Woody Allen's Movies
I'm no critic, though I'll credit it to how I watch movies: looking out for fabulous acting that trumps music, cinematography etc
Any movie goer would have watched bad/disappointing movies in their lives. (Yes, even those so bad that would have given you cancer!)
Till now I have no recollection of Woody Allen's movies' plots. Even for the recent Blue Jasmine, I remember the rough plot, the ending, breathtaking performance by Cate Blanchett, but... nothing else.
But the acting of the actors/actresses! Just can't get enough. Cate Blanchett in Blue Jasmine, Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder, Mifune Toshiro in Seven Samurai, Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Carribean. These are roles that make you think they are real characters.
