Audience Reviews for Anything Else

  • May 08, 2011
    The dialog, every second of it, is perfect.
    Jonny B Super Reviewer

    I thought this film is way underrated. You'll have to be a "reader" or "intelligent" to understand fully what Allen achieved in Anything Else. It was hilarious and classic. Definitely worth watching twice for the memorable sayings. If you are into boring, senseless bloodbath action, this is not for you.

    This movie sucked! I LIKE Christina Ricci but this was one of Woody Allen's worst!
    Miriam K Super Reviewer

    I seriously thought this was going to be about some romantic comedy we naturally see. I was SO wrong, in so many levels. This movie is about little psychos who can drain someone, a "life sucker" if you will. Very well done, some plot holes but it's good in general. Woody Allen (always) makes it worth a watch.
