After seeing that Penelope Cruz won the Oscar for "Best Supporting Actress" for her work in this film, and that it was directed and written by Woody Allen, I decided to give it a shot. Definitely not the type of film I typically enjoy (or even watch), but this movie really wasn't bad at all. The Wes Anderson-esque narration of the film was a nice touch.
In many ways this felt like a fairly "flat" film. In some ways it seemed to be Woody Allen merely fantasizing a world where sexual promiscuity and wanton morality make a person "deep" or somehow more "insightful" than those who follow those old-fashioned ideas monogamy and faithfulness to one's partner.
5/10

Yes, after seeing this film I wanted to move to Europe, sell photographs, and live promiscuously, while drinking into the late evening...
