One of Allen's best.

The previous reviewer called Woody Allen's character "neurotic" and "annoying". Why not take some time to write about how the sky is blue while you're at it? Annie Hall is one of the best films of all time. Hands down. Period.

I think there is way too much hype about this movie. Woody Allen's character is annoyingly neurotic and awkward. But Diane Keaton is quite young and beautiful.

Entertaining and sweet with moments of satirical genius. Gags throughout the entire film. Woody rocks!

Despite being Allen's most famous endeavor, the film doesn't quite hold up in modern times. As a teenager, it just didn't connect with me. Pleasant, but not as good as it is made out to be.

What a funny, sad, brilliant movie. Woody Allen, perhaps at his sweetest best, and not the neurotic mess he plays in his movies now. Dianne West, pretty, stylish, smart and ditzy, and unforgettable. Together, they tell the story of a New York couple as they get fall in love, get together, and ultimately end up doing that thing that most relationships do. The story telling is innovative and playful. An animated sequence, monologues, "breaking the fourth wall" scenes, flashbacks where the characters comment on the memory itself... all combine with a non-linear story line to create a breathtaking romantic comedy, where you will be hard pressed to find one line that is out of step or unnecessary. At one point, a character remarks that he writes a play out of his experiences with Annie Hall, and you can't help but wonder if you've just watched one.

One Word: Genius. This is truly the film that defines cinematic wit.
