Scoop Reviews: better than the last Woody Allen film 2009-10-21 - A mystery comes back from the grave in this funny comedy about a
young reporter trying to prove an English Lord is a serial killer.
The spirit/ ghost of a newsman comes back from the dead
after meeting a dead secretary who says she was poisoned by
her employer.
The young blond American falls for the Englishman
and thinks until the end that
he is innocent...
Woody Allen is a ham and one wonders how a silly fellow like him
keeps getting clunkers filmed?
Some of the laughs actually come off,
Woody Allen can't stop making side comments about the leading lady
that just detract from the film.
Still this is a better film than Mighty Aphrodite.
Excellent 2009-09-13 - This was the movie that made me realize that I was a fan of Scarlet Johansson. Though, I suppose one could and should dedicate the greatness of this film to Woody Allen and he has indeed written and starred in yet another good film.
I happened upon this by chance, not sure why it hasn't received more press but it is an excellent mystery, romance, comedy film that is really interesting.
