Annie Hall Ratings & Reviews
- Eric BakkeNovember 4, 2024Woody Allen’s Annie Hall certainly stands as a landmark in cinematic history, blending groundbreaking storytelling with quirky humor and rich character development. Watching it for the first time today, it's easy to see why it was so revolutionary in 1977. Allen's playfully unconventional approach to romance, narrative structure, and breaking the fourth wall must have felt like a breath of fresh air back then. Diane Keaton’s portrayal of Annie, with her bubbly, free-spirited charm, anchors the film and makes it feel timeless. The film’s blend of intellectual humor and emotional vulnerability really stands out, making it both relatable and refreshing. The way it flips between past and present, mixing humor with self-reflection, was something audiences hadn’t really seen before. With that said, even with all the innovation and wit, Annie Hall doesn’t quite make it into my personal Top 10 romantic comedies. While its influence can’t be overstated, it didn’t hit the same emotional (or comedic) highs for me as some other classics. Also, as much as I appreciate the movie, I still can't wrap my head around it beating Star Wars for Best Picture. Sure, Annie Hall is a groundbreaking piece of cinema, but Star Wars redefined an entire genre and pop culture in ways few films have ever managed.
- mickerdoo5d agoComes off pretentious at times. But overall funny, quick-witted and a good representation of the ups and downs of relationships.
- Jefferson BittencourtFebruary 15, 2026A very creative direction, with crossovers of situations and characters that make cinema gain a lot in terms of style and quality. Woody is one of my favorite filmmakers because he knows how to make poetry with mise en scene. And Diane Keaton was a fabulous actress.

- รҡ૨אρƭเ∂March 15, 2025I just watched this for the first time in 20 years. All I remebered about it was that after watching it the first time it removed any notion or interest in being a New Yorker or Liberal for the rest of my life. So yeah that was only reconfirmed. The jokes hit a little better tho problem is this time I am also aware of his stepkid-diddling tendencies and that certainly doesn't help ol Woody's cause. All the privilaged complaining is good cemedic relief in film format but IRL I imagine Woody is unbearable. Espesially because he is probably blaming evry other white guy at the table other than himself for everything even tho he's better off than most. I'd imagine he also has no real solutions for all those complaints. I came to realize that Jerry Seinfelds shtick is like a perfect mixture of Woody Allen and Larry David. I often read Annie Hall was Allen's best offering. To me it's not saying much especially when your obviously so 1 dimensional. Couple laughs mostly at the ironic neolib ideocracies. So, that being said.... 2.7/10
