Optimistic and goofy vs. pessimistic and cynical. On which side would you prefer to be? Pragmatism might be a simplistic answer, but a valid answer nonetheless.
I found this Woody Allen´s movie a bit too predictable (considering that all of his movies are predictable) even for what I am used to from this director. A bit too sugary and light… like a well made meringue? fluffy!
