movie review - Midnight in Paris

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2012.04.15

We got about fifteen minutes into this when I realized that I hated everybody in it. I looked up the director and realized that it was Woody Allen. This told me that it would remain indulgent and awful. We watched something else.

It's not often that I'm put off to a point that I won't bother with a movie.

Not recommended.

I'm pleased and happy to repeat the news that we have, in fact, caught and killed a large predator that supposedly injured some bathers. But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the beaches are open and people are having a wonderful time.
