    A tired comedy that feels entirely phoned in.

    This too-long drama ends and begins with a domestic bliss that’s both bucolic and deeply uninteresting.

    Getting any mileage out of Miley and her Bernardine Dohrn-with-a-husky-voice character proves unrewarding. Most of Crisis is spent listening to Sidney and Kay dither about hearing aids, Freudian analyses, and one-liners that sound dusted off from Allen’s decades-old standup act.

    Allen’s simplistic portrait of the 1960s attempts to stir some nostalgia and light laughs and fails. It’s remarkable only for seeming like a lame vignette out of “Love, American Style.”

    Woody Allen projects are all walking and talking, so they rise or fall based on the strength of their ideas. This one has none.

    The barely coherent babble seems to go absolutely nowhere, obfuscating the anorexic plot nearly to the point of non-existence.

    Meandering, unfocused and unfunny. ... It's terrible. Don't waste your time.
