Story of a couple's adventure-filled day in the Big Apple where their characters are tested and relationships alter forever sounds like an intriguing plot. And to be fair it is. Classy direction by Woody Allen and lazy screenplay makes a good combination of a good and not so good of a movie. Feels stretched at times and even though the plot has well intentions it slips at places and doesn't give itself a chance to recover.
Highs: Addition of Selena Gomez, Jude Law, and Diego Luna add much-needed star power. The entire movie has a feel-good vibe to it and genuinely funny at some scenes. Music is really pleasing and adds a very elegant touch to the ambiance of the film.
Lows: Badly edited and sluggish at most scenes. Storywriting lacks the 'oomph factor' and never really impresses beyond its consistency.
Rating: 3 ***
