Woody Allen has created a riveting story based on the premise that life hangs in the balance -- using the wonderful opening tennis ball suspended in the air above the net metaphor --ultimately of things beyond our control. [***SPOILERS***]A dark commentary on the human soul as the main character -- who is aruable noble, not rotten as others surmise -- is corrupted by $$$. Familiar you say ? Yes, but very un-Hollywood. Briliant dialogue and supporting cast --- Allen rivets, inspires and crushes with finality. Brilliant film-making and terrific performances.… Expand

It was so boring we couldn't get past the 15-minute mark. Calling it banal would be high praise.

I was enthralled by this movie. The suspense was incredible and all the actors were perfect, as was the wonderful operatic background music. Hurrah for Woody Allen.

A must-see for the brilliance of the writing, direction and a cast of superb actors. Ranks with Husbands And Wives, Crimes And Misdemeanors and Manhattan...maybe better. A Hitchcockian take-off that matches the master.

The film is immensely enjoyable.It succeeds both as a morality tale and a crime thriller. It has a glossy cinematography of the affluent side of london. The actors give good performances and the love scenes are effective.

The critical and commercial success of Woody Allen's latest but generally quite uncharacteristic venture, a dark, London-based tale of social climbing, adultery and other sins--and the primacy of fate--is ironic on two counts. It's The critical and commercial success of Woody Allen's latest but generally quite uncharacteristic venture, a dark, London-based tale of social climbing, adultery and other sins--and the primacy of fate--is ironic on two counts. It's clearly and by far his best movie since 1989's Crimes and Misdemeanors, but the irony stems from its frequent thematic similarities to that masterpiece...and that as entertaining and effective as Match Point often is, it can't hold a candle to it. For one thing, the story of Chris (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers), a tennis pro who marries into a rich family with all kinds of business connections, but lusts after Nola (Scarlett Johansson), an American would-be actress who's his brother-in-law's fiancee, is icy-cold throughout. As good as Rhys-Meyers is at fulfilling Allen's conception of the role, his petulance and poutiness is no match for the soulfulness and world-weariness that mades his Crimes and Misdemeanors parallel, wonderfully played by Martin Landau, a character for the ages. And thank God that Emily Mortimer is on hand to warm up the screen as Chloe, Chris's spunky, abundantly sweet and almost totally clueless wife; with the exception of a minor character who figures in the film's central action to her detriment, there's simply nobody else to care about here: all the other people in this movie are either priggish, whiny, completely conscience-free, utterly self-centered or a total nonentity. As a commentary on the capriciousness of blind, random luck, both this and Crimes make me wonder if, while the music of the great jazz masters and the films of Ingmar Bergman are major influences on Woody's life and art, the wildly cynical 1940s Chuck Jones-directed Looney Tune, "Fresh Airedale", isn't by chance a minor but highly significant one. In any event, Woody is apparently being given a very wide berth by critics and audiences (and maybe Oscar voters?) because this is infinitely superior to the heretofore seemingly endless run of increasingly lame, repetitious comedies (Hollywood Ending, Anything Else, Melinda and Melinda) he's been cranking out as of late, but let's be honest: once you've experienced for the first time Allen's exceedingly clever final twist (and the equally ingenious way he builds it on a red herring founded on a total inversion of expectations), how much of a "rewatchability factor" does Match Point truly have? Nowhere near the level of not only Crimes, but also Manhattan, Interiors, Hannah and her Sisters and Annie Hall, that's for sure!… Expand

Jonathan Rhys-Meyers was excellent and really had his character down pat. I have seen Brokeback Mountain and Walk the Line and Jonathan holds his own for the Oscar in my opinion. Also, what a walk this guy has, LORD. He is so intense. . . Scarlett Johansson was as sexy and alluring as I have ever seen her and she has certainly cemented herself, in my eyes, as one of America's brightest young actresses. She did a very good job, bravo. But I am not going to say this movie was seamless because the dialogue was a bit absurd at times. However, in addition to the acting being very very well done the movie was beautiful. The locations used for shooting were just out of this world. In the end I left the movie totally disturbed by what I had just seen and I am positive that was Woody Allen's goal. I have been thinking about the movie every minute since because there is just so much tension left in my muscles. I find myself rethinking many of the scenes, which will prompt me to rent and/or buy the movie when it goes on sale. To Woody, I think you are as weird as they come, but brilliant at what you do. Cheers for Match Point!… Expand

The whole movie is a bit of a bore, probably better the 2nd time around, a fairly large disconnect on how, when, why Chris (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers) actually got Nola interested, I must of been asleep when she started to fall for him. So to cut to the chase, and to sum up the whole movie: Never Forget... LUCK plays a large part in LIFE... and no LUCK for Nola is to be found. Could this be based on a true story? Only LUCK will ever know sure :)… Expand

Facile comparisons to Patricia Highsmith are offbase (and demeaning to Woody Allen's genius). Highsmith's protagonists are indifferent to evil and enjoy good conscience after their crimes. Not so Chris in Match Point. The key to Facile comparisons to Patricia Highsmith are offbase (and demeaning to Woody Allen's genius). Highsmith's protagonists are indifferent to evil and enjoy good conscience after their crimes. Not so Chris in Match Point. The key to this movie is that when Nola appears in Chris's night kitchen, Chris is not frightened. So it's not a bad dream, it's a transcendent level of reality that owes more to Cocteau than to Hitchcock. Chris is on trial; he defends himself by quoting Sophocles and referring to a larger scheme beyond morality, but Nola tells him to prepare for paying the price, which at this point, because of Allen's marvelous coup de cinema with the wedding ring, we think means the cops will get him. No. The price Chris plays... is to suffer lifelong retribution from his own internal furies. In the movie's last frame, Chris is in hell.… Expand

Woody Allen constructed this movie about one conceit, that of the net point in tennis. He demonstrates that there must be luck involved which determines if the ball will bounce your way or not. If you boil the movie down to this, you might Woody Allen constructed this movie about one conceit, that of the net point in tennis. He demonstrates that there must be luck involved which determines if the ball will bounce your way or not. If you boil the movie down to this, you might just see it as a long dark joke with an eventual punchline (call it irony). What I think makes the movie work is that it is played out in an English class-based world and it portrays a type of story of greed, lust, and duplicity one might expect to find there. On the whole then, the movie is well crafted and acted. I would say the one weakness is the criminal investigation. It really only makes sense if the crime had taken place 50 years ago when fingerprints were still considered the state of the art technique. I've watched enough TV criminal shows to know that any of the detectives there, including even Monk, should have been able to solve this crime. Perhaps Woody Allen saw the movie originally as a period piece in which case the crime fits in perfectly. On the other hand, if you stick to just the "what is luck?" aspect of the story and not question the detective work, the movie is very effective indeed as a character study where each character is driven by his/her own well-defined motives.… Expand

The murderer tries to throw away evidence of his crime (a wedding ring), but it happens to be found by another criminal, who then happens to commit another murder, which happens to occur in the same area, which happens to occur in the same time-frame, and the second killer happens to have the evidence (ring) of the first killing in his possession. The police then conclude this second killer also commited the first murder, and the anit-hero escapes charges. The odds of this happening are roughly the same as the odds of being struck by lightening five times in the same day. No wonder Woody is such a cynic! The critics let him get away with this .… Expand

It occasionally hits the accelerator, but far too often Woody Allen's pacing of the film just fails to deliver anything of interest. Plus, the film is far too subtle. Obviously, I picked up on all the thematic elements and what not, but as it stands, the film's pacing is just off kilter. That said, Jonathan Rhys Meyers is very good here and Scarlett Johansson also does quite well here. However, the problems of the film all come back again to the lack of intrigue and dramatic entertainment. I appreciate slow burns and slower films, but even though this one has a solid pay-off, it just does not save the film and, even worse, the sequence immediately proceeding the ending makes no sense given the tone and approach of the film before this. It just does not fit, even if the very ending does do a good job tying up all the thematic elements. Overall, Match Point hits the net and bounces back onto your side.… Expand

Is the business about luck contrived? I am not sure, but I wish Allen would do a sequel. I would guess the JR-M character becomes a ruthless CEO (perhaps the Jeremy Irons character in Margin Call) and as he climbs, has a more willing string of mistresses. And perhaps he finds his father-in-law and he are more alike than we originally think or if not, and his father-in-law is indeed weak and rich by chance, the sky is the limit for JR-M -- until his luck runs out, that is.

Match Point

The first half is spent on setting the obvious plot, twisted characters and dark tone of the feature and takes its time to kick in but when it does its enthralling, electrifying and brutal in its last hour. Woddy Allen's smart and finely detailed script is the real game changer in here along with his brilliant execution that makes you think twice. On performance level, the objective seems unsatisfied as the lead characters i.e. Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Meyers and Emily Mortimer aren't as convincing as they should have been. Match Point seems like a normal rom-com with a predictable twist until its last act hits on screen that may shake the audience dreadfully for despite of its genre it goes into places where Woody Allen has never been.… Expand
