Whatever Works Woody Allen


"Whatever Works" is Woody Allen's return to New York and Comedy. This movie seems to go back to familiar themes in Allen's films. Romance with cynicism, smart jokes with stupid gags, and of course an excess of funny dialog. "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" was witty and insightful, but this "Whatever Works" is laugh out loud funny. Sure most of these scenario's Allen has used before but when you go out to see your favorite band you want to here their "hits." don't you? If I may use the old cliche and say 'if its not broke don't fix it" Coming out of this film you feel good, its not a thought provoking, mind bending, or life changing movie its a joke, a lark. This makes us who live in New York City feel lucky to be where lives are changed just by the experiences of the city. In the beginning and at the end the point is drilled in, when it comes to relationships luck plays a big part and we all should go for, and out to see"Whatever works."
