Magic in the Moonlight



What I liked:

  • Emma Stone is delightful.
  • Colin Firth plays the part well.
  • It has a wonderful supporting cast: Simon McBurney, Catherine McCormack, Eileen Atkins, Erica Leerhsen, Jeremy Shamos, Hamish Linklater, Marcia Gay Garden and Jacki Weaver.
  • It was written and directed by Woody Allen.
  • The set design, costumes, hair and make up were all great.
  • The story is light and enjoyable.

What I didn't like:
  • I get the feeling that Allen fell asleep with Notting Hill in the background.  I sensed some similarities.
  • It was a tad too long.
  • I didn't agree with the ending.

Grade: B+
