Allen’s reworking of Bergman’s film features some of his own trademark musings on life, love and spirituality thrown into the mix (including nods to the eponymous Shakespeare play), with the basic sex comedy essence of the material preserved, not being entirely alien to Allen’s body of work itself. With plenty of familiar hijinks to keep things rolling, as well as being gorgeously shot on location, it takes a while to find its footing but once it’s there, it makes for silly but entirely harmless natter.

superbly written multi-character comedic farce by the Woody Allen all-star team (Greenhut/Rollins/Joffe producing, Gordon Willis on camera, Susan Morse editing). Top notch stuff from under-appreciated Allen.

Not the gossamer light confection it could have been and something of a portent for latter, even thinner, meta-physical whimsies from Allen; yet it’s attractively staged if underdeveloped and peopled with generally uninteresting characters.

Not one of Woody Allen's best, but is still a great movie to behold, nonetheless.
