Larry David is definitely not a character I would see in movies every day. In any case, Whatever Works was a Woody Allen movie I’ve enjoyed to the fullest and he was the one who deserved a standing ovation for the entire movie. This movie is exactly the same. If I were tipsy, maybe even blackout drunk, I’d rate this movie five stars, because this sort of condition is definitely suitable for this movie. It deals with flirting, who slept with whom and who got down on their knees for whom; this sort of debate is definitely befitting being drunk. It doesn’t have the right kick when you’re sober – and the same goes for this movie, although it isn’t that bad. Also, I must add that I’m writing this after drinking four beers. But I watched the movie after I drank a tea.

I don't know what it was, but when I watched that movie, I just didn't feel anything. Simply no emotions. Maybe it was because of tiredness. Then I thought about it a little bit. It's actually a movie about how one man ruins his life on quite old age, only to fix it in ten years by messing it up even more. He still has friends who won't forget about him. And that's it. Nice, the smaller roles of the stars delight, but otherwise it simply didn't leave much in me.
