One of my favorite woody allen movies. I have a real hard time telling them apart (except this one)… in fact, I really don’t understand how he keeps making them… and making them good. This one is a bit different, Woody takes his shtick to the future, or outer space or some crazy thing like that.
I saw this in a theater when I was really young. I didn’t really understand it, but I remember being proud that I sort-of enjoyed it since it was an “adult movie” (and NO, it didn’t have naked people doing naughty things)
I think it’s difficult to act mentally handicapped, or at least to pull it off. The leads in this movie do a decent job of it though. If you’re not annoyed by the dialogue in the first half-hour, you’ll probably like this. One thing though, Juliette Lewis is far too pretty to be thoroughly convincing.
