Woody Allen picks up on his European obsession with "Magic in the Moonlight," a pleasant film that has its quirks, but suffers from a condescending and trivial third act.

Zwanghaft

Unten im Keller unserer Filmkunstbar Fitzcarraldo füllt sich eine ganze Regal Ebene mit Woody Allen DVDs. Pro Jahr eine mehr. Der zwanghafte Filmemacher Woody Allen versucht dabei, jedem einzelnen seiner Filme diesen gewissen "Swing" mitzugeben. Es scheint eine Vorgabe von ihm selbst zu sein, die er erreichen muss. Leider sind seine Filme mittlerweile in unschöner Regelmässigkeit mit einer Enttäuschung verbunden. Allen zollt seiner eigenen Arbeit einfach nicht mehr den genügenden Respekt und fabriziert, seit 1983 wie ein Uhrwerk einen Film pro Jahr. Es treibt ihn dabei aber schon länger kein genialischer oder künstlerischer Impuls mehr an. Dabei befinden wir uns seit 2005 "offiziell" in einer Allen Renaissance. In diese Zeit fällt nicht nur sein erfolgreichster Film überhaupt …

Sophie: "More Mystery, More Magic".

The story is about a spiritual medium may or may not be conning wealthy families and a Englishman, and magician, will stop at nothing to uncover the truth - though he doesn't realize just how it will affect both his personal and professional life.

To me Woody Allen is 50/50, sometimes he can direct and write great movies with a lot of details into, but at times he can direct and write not so good films, not terrible, just a bit weak. Magic in the Moonlight can be reviewed in many different ways for some people. The movie can suck the auditions in by it's story,writing and the films atmosphere, or people are not looking for good story or good writing, just something to entertain them, well this has some of the good, and some of the bad.
