i'm not a fan. normally. of woody allen or scarlett johansson. my husband loves woody allen and i can't understand why his movies seem to be all about sex and adultery. same thing? anyways, we went to see his new movie, Scoop, last night with our friends, clinton and lisa. honestly, i just wanted to go to the movies and those at the kentucky theatre are the most reasonably priced. my hope was to see A Scanner Darkly, but that didn't start until 9:40pm. i'm old. that's too late for me.
all of this to say, i thoroughly enjoyed this movie! this is by far the most entertaining and hilarious movie by woodrow allen that i've seen. and i've seen more than my share. scarlett j. isn't the slutty ho that she usually plays in recent movies. even though she does have her small moments. i haven't laughed outloud at a woody allen movie until last night.
warning: woody allen plays a major role in this movie. if you are totally annoyed by his neurotic-ness then beware, but overall, he plays a pretty darn funny role.

as we were deciding what movie to see last night, i read the reviews of our top picks. 'scoop' only got 56/100. one critic said it was the worst film woody allen has ever made. we saw pirates on account of the reviews, and now i'm thinking we chose poorly and paid dearly in dollars for it.
it seems like only occasionally do i agree with those damned critics. i mean, Lost In Translation got rave reviews and it was all i could do to stay interested in that movie. sometimes it's just fun to go out though. (a little less fun when you have to fork out the big bucks). why the high prices?
