Not the greatest woody allen, turns a bit long... especially at the end.

At first it's just typical, generic Allen-by-numbers but it really gets better when the romantic subplot - Allen's area of expertise - gains more weight in the story. And it's really really funny. The camework's awfult though.

An intriguing story and some really likable characters. Very funny and enjoyable overall. This is like Woody Allen doing Hitchcock, and it works wonderfully. The tape recorder phone call is one of the funniest things I've seen in a while.

Some of the Diane Lane/Woody Allen scenes with the crosstalk is unnervingly annoying, but overall an excellent comedy mystery.

This movie 'aint all that. I liked the first bit when we were more than a little convinced that Dianne Keaton was just imagining the whole thing as a kind of escape. But then the murder mystery goes into full gear, and it just gets stupid. The more we became bogged down in the mechanics of the mystery and distracted from the characters, the less I liked this movie.

Very light and very enjoyable little silly Allen comedy.

A good thriller. Director Allen handles the plot so efficiently that he has a lot of time left for character and humor. Allen and Keaton are still great together, and Alda and Huston add richness to the mix.

I had to take some points off for the uninspired ending, and there were a few glaring but forgivable script-level continuity problems, but other than that this is a very fun ride. It's really funny, pulls you in, good acting, and it's nice that the characters and their relationships are much more believable than you would get in a non-Woody-Allen comedy, though not necessarily fresh; by '93 Allen was noticeably recycling his stock archetypes.

morro de rir.

Woody does Hitchcock and does it EXCELLENTLY! I am seriously blown away by this film. Not only is it hilarious - And it truly is, Allen zings off one-liners like crazy and his knack for slapstick is clearly still there - but it also has a great plot with twists that had me shouting and enough suspense to rival Rear Window. I don't know how anyone who likes both Hitch and Woody could dislike this movie. "Ted sees himself as Rick in Casablanca; I see him more as Peter Lorre."

Very funny and the mystery is well written. Even though the anxiety gets to be a little too much at times the film is a lot of fun.

Enjoyable Woody Allen comedy which does not stray far from the formula.
