Woody Allen makes us laugh for decades and continues to do it with his increadibles and originals screenplays. ‘The Curse of the Jade Scorpion’ is an example. Staring as investigator C.W Briggs, Allen tries to resolve crimes that he committed as he was hypnotized by magician Volton. He robbes houses that use security sistems designed by him, but he remembers nothing in the next day. Briggs also starts to fall in love for Betty Ann (Helen Hunt) who is romantically involved with Briggs’ boss. Fans of Allen certainly will love this film for its comic way of treating the action and the relations between the characters. Allen continues surprise us with its simple style of directing and he doesn’t request special effects or a sofisticated cinematography which makes Allen remarkable. Who doesn’t remember the most famous word of this film? It’s not a ‘must-see’film of Woody Allen, but it’s pretty good.
