Match Point Ratings & Reviews
- 0 13 de abril de 2026While Woody Allen is synonymous with neurotic romantic comedies, Match Point is a departure into the realm of something more dramatic. the acting and script are superb, but the film’s depth lies in its intentional nod to classic literature. By having Chris Wilton read Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment, the film establishes a moral framework rather than just a reference. It forces the audience to grapple with the "Extraordinary Man" theory; the idea that certain individuals may believe themselves above the law to achieve their ends. Beyond the central theme of luck, the film dives deep into the colder, more calculated aspects of human ambition: greed, pragmatic marriage, social class. At the beginning of the film you feel somewhat sympathetic to Chris's outsider ambition, charming personality, then you watch him unravel into something else. the "Journeyman" tennis lifestyle of that era is authentic. This was before ATP tour started doing stipends for the lower ranks, so match fixing and point shaving was more of an issue then. the film uses the net cord to explore fate and luck, in tennis the ultimate 'bad bounce'. It's NOT realistic.😂 based on my own experience as a NCAA university player... Allen could have focused break points, injuries, poor finances, legal issues for his metaphor but it would have been less cinematic and longer to explain.
- Robert Shaw7 de enero de 2026Good film. And Scarlett Johanson looks fantastic as always
- mickerdoo15 de agosto de 2025I like other Woody works. But this felt like waiting for something substantial to happen. Surface level feelings throughout. Big third act.
