Match Point

2005
Romance
Drama
2h 4m
Match Point is a drama about ambition and obsession, the seduction of wealth, and the often discordant relationship between love and sexual passion. Perhaps most importantly, however, the story reveals the huge part luck plays in the events of our lives, refuting the comforting misconception that more of life is under our control than really is. (Dream Works Pictures)

What a gut-wrenching movie. My stomach was in knots for about the last hour of the film. I knew going in what the big plot point was, but that didn't make it any less tense and gripping. You can't help but feel that any minute, a single thread will unravel and the entire thing will come crashing down on Chris. A hell of a drama/thriller, with some effective dark comedic elements and a really strong philosophical statement about luck.

A huge comeback from Allen after countless years of deterioration. A gut-wrenching, heart-throbbing and afflictive thriller with many complicated logics and statements about luck and death. Chris's predicaments and challenges bring on almost deadly dismay. A high point in Woody's career as far as his recent decline goes.

The first good film out of Woody Allen in a long while, and what could possibly prove to be his last best effort. The plot direction is fairly easy to see before too long, but what makes the movie exceptional is the sense of dread Allen instills in everything. The tension mounts to the point where the film is physically uncomfortable to watch and I just wanted it to be over with -- and yet, that's the highest compliment I can pay it. Outstanding.

My exposure to Allen's recent output is limited, but this seems to me like an attempt on his part to return to the kind of film he was making in the 80's. This is a movie that creeps up on you and gets under your skin, from the unassuming start to the chilling ending. I'm glad Woody didn't cast himself as someone's quirky American stepfather or something, 'cause he showed here -- as he has done before -- that he's perfectly capable of making serious dramas with storytelling at the forefront.

I'm not an Allen fan, but decided it was high time I gave him another go, starting with a fairly recent movie that came highly recommended. Unfortunately, I found Match Point to be a tired, by-the-numbers thriller with cookie cutter characters driving a Ford Pinto plot, taking every expected turn down the cobbled avenues of Richie Richville...up until the last curve, when instead of turning down the road to Hollywood redemption, the car veers off a cliff and explodes into a ball of fiery bliss.

I think that its great when a film actually opens with a thesis statement; in this case that luck is the controlling force of our lives. There's a lot more to this film than that, with influences from opera, Dostoevsky and some modern nihilism, there's a lot of nuance to each scene that can only be gained through repeated viewing. Some people may find the acting to be a bit wooden, but it seems appropriate to the characters; in a way a commentary on artifice.

The most un-Woody Woody movie I've seen, and how refreshing after watching 3-4 of his recent forays into Europe masquerading as theatrical films. An actual plot...tension...story advancement...wow! Ran across it randomly on a Sunday afternoon and stuck through it all while I waited and waited for it to take an abrupt, lame turn. To my surprise, it only got better as the main character continued his spiral into total and irredeemable depravity.

The Talented Mr. Ripley anyone? But really, the suspense lasts maybe two minutes, but by that time you already know what is going to happen and everything leading up to that point is just a waste. I will give it credit that the ending was a lot of fun, although nonetheless it still suffers from the "Woody Allen effect."

I was on the edge of my seat, which clearly means that Match Point was a success. Certainly it's the best Allen movie of the '00's. This movie stands totally apart from everything else in Allen's filmography, showing that the man still has it in him to innovate. That's so refreshing.

Some men will go to astonishing lengths to preserve reputation and retain luxury. This movie had my stomach in knots for over an hour, nearly making me sick from the tension - but that's praise. One heck of a sexy, nihilistic thriller with a plausible premise and dynamite ending. The operatic music is used to tremendous effect, giving these acts of infidelity and depravity an air of high class; fitting as it parallels the monetary comfort of high society against the dangerous power of seduction.

Quite possibly Woody Allen's best film of the aughties? I appreciated the buildup more than I did the climax, which seemed to kind of shift into a different genre, not so seamlessly. But for the most part it's really well-written and engaging, and not smart-alecky or saccharine or trite like some of the other later works by Allen.

Film-lite. I can't deny the character development made it compelling, but compare it to say, "The Talented Mr. Ripley," and it just seems pathetic and unnecessary. (What's going on? Are people just googoo over Woody and his rara Dostoevsky allusions?). And that's forgiving it the crummy acting and gimmicky pretense about "luck." gngh, regret staying up late for this. It's sanitised masturbation fodder for anglophiles and bored housewives, complete with cloyingly neutral colour palette.

I was a casual Woody Allen fan until I saw this movie (really enjoyed Radio Days) - after that I started to understand why my wife can't stand him. The main character is a scumbag from what I remember. I'm sure some film elitist might tell me I need to watch it again, but I was almost sickened by some parts, mainly the ending, so I'll pass.

All I remember about this film is Jonathan Rhys Meyers trying to be Jude Law - I wonder if Allen had Law in mind for the role of Chris - and terrible sex scenes. At least Johansson has a presence that demands the viewer's attention, about the only redeeming aspect of the film.

Holds up. Jonathan Rhys Meyers doesn't exactly pop off the screen with movie star charisma, but it pays off when his character pretty much becomes a dead-inside psycho. Despite how much time is left on the clock after the murders take place, this doesn't spin its wheels as much as most other 100+ minute Woodys do. The twist with the ring made me laugh my ass off when I first saw this. Still one of my favorite preposterous reveals out there.

Match Point is Allen's most bleak film, full of conflicted loyalties and a skewed sense of morality that is disturbing yet fascinating at the same time. Carnal passions and morbid thoughts are all in the mix, and, as it also is in the game of tennis that is regularly alluded to in the film, love means zero.

Story is good but it has a very big hole. How did the police not discover that Nola was pregnant? Other than that, pace is a real problem. First 90 minutes are boring and repetitive. Last 30 are great. Dialogue quality is nowhere near Allen's best. However, there are some great dialogues: the one on luck which is also movie's main theme, quote from Sophocles, etc.

Could have been better. The timing and pacing was all wrong; Allen should have taken direction in this regard from some of the literary works from which he derived the story. Dostoevsky put the murder early in his story for a reason, and it would have served this film well to have it earlier as well. I thought some of the acting could have been better, too, especially from Johansson.

The movie successfully draws you into the seductive world of the wealthy, helping you understand the motivations behind certain characters so that you end up genuinely rooting for the "bad guy". Despite being riddled with flaws (too long, whiny dialogue and weak acting from Scarlett Johansson in an otherwise decent cast), the movie leaves you strangely satisfied with an unashamedly amoral tale.

"MATCH POINT is a drama about a young man's rise in society and the terrible consequences of his ambition. The protagonist is torn between two women, and finding no way out, resorts to extreme action. The actors are all English, and it is set amongst the English upper class with Scarlett Johansson playing the beautiful American girl who comes between Jonathan Rhys Meyers and his wife Emily Mortimer. Matthew Goode is Emily's wealthy brother who initiates the tragic events."

7/9/9 - Every scene is solid, except for a few important ones - the early encounters between Meyers and Johansson are shocking - overacted and overdramatic with incredibly cheesy dialogue. The pacing is great, and Meyers pulls off a great performance - creating a character who is both charming and unlikeable, yet who manages to grip the viewers attention. Nesbitt's cameo as a cop is a real plus.

Woody Allen's best movies tend to be the ones wherein his characters, much like himself, are complete monsters. This is no exception; Rhys Meyers makes the most of what he's given with a properly dull performance, and the setting/casting accentuate the story in proper and subtle ways. this movie would be significantly shittier had Allen gotten his wish to film it in the Hamptons. a definitive work in the Americans Are Better People Than the British canon

Rhys Meyers is arguably empty in his performance, but that's not what this is about. This is an almost verbatim retouch of The Idiot until things get contemporary towards the finale. This is about the burden of guilt and the indifference that we really deal with. In this modern age, we are groomed with a moral coding but, going against the grain for personal gain, we should realize there is no great balancing act. This is all yin, do you wish there was a yang?

Woody Allen is the reason why I don't hate the jews.

I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this was definitely not it. Woody Allen has gone for an "unaffected" vibe with stilted dialogue produced to sound like a handy-cam soundtrack. A good movie has characters we care about, or at least care what happens to; these characters failed to give us any reason to do so. I had reached my final straw and was about to turn it off, but it only had 10 minutes to go, so I suffered through it. That 2 hours (felt like 4) of my life I'll never get back.

This movie is hit-or-miss. I personally think it's very well done with the artistic shots and character development. The acting isn't Oscar-worthy, but the movie in its entirety, with its intricacies proved to be not only entertaining but thought-provoking. But, and there's a but, other times, when I watch this movie with other people... it's not as good. Not as brilliant as earlier Woody Allen films, but definitely the best in a long while.

Tense and enthralling. The best Woody Allen movie in years.

The first half was quite slow, necessary, but could've been done better. The second half more than made up for it. I'm glad I didn't give up on it halfway through.

Some good ideas in this variation on one of the themes of CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS, but the male lead is weak and this viewer wasn't so taken with the female lead either (compared to how others seem to feel).

we can't underestimate the effect of chance on our lives if we expect to succeed on something. there is no much word to say about woody allen who shows his own sense of humor and the world with full of irony created by him

I really enjoyed this gem from Woody Allen. Up there with "Crimes and Misdemeanors (sp.)" in my opinion. Had me on the edge of my seat at the end. Highly recommended.

With such a slow pace, Allen is able to allow the tension to build naturally as the story develops, which puts you on the edge of your seat by the end. It's not until we see the beautiful scene that ties us back in with the opening shot that the film becomes something truly great, though. At that point we realize Allen still has it.

Woody does a thriller for a change (although one could argue that it really is a black comedy) and scores again. Very nicely done
