Woody and Woody...new
Woody Allen's self-conscious examination of comedy vs. tragedy isn't such a bad film. It's merely all right -- very high-concept and on its way to interesting but never there.

Woody Allen gives us two stories for the price of one. Don't we even get half the enjoyment value for our ticket?
