I saw this last night and liked it
11 April 2005
but didn't love it. I loved the concept but some of the actors spoke their lines in a wooden way and sounded like they were in a high school play. I'm convinced no one but Woody should speak his lines. Ferrell is funny in his own right and shouldn't have to try to be Woody allen. I found it very distracting to keep hearing Will Ferrell say lines that sounded exactly like Woody Allen. Why couldn't Woody have written lines that would work for someone besides himself? Ego?

Melinda was the best acted part in the movie, I thought. I also liked the actress who played the pregnant woman (Cassie?). Anyway, I did enjoy the movie and would recommend it. The concept was very original and any chance to see Wallace Shawn again is worthwhile.
