After a string of movies plot in Europe, Woody Allen triumphantly returns to his beloved Unique York for Whatever Works. Since Allen releases a current film each year, it’s hit-or-miss with him (rightfully so) . This film got less-than-enthusiastic reviews and, as such, I wasn’t expecting powerful from it…But the critics really misrepresented this film, as this is one of Woody’s best comedies.

Larry David (of Curb Your Enthusiasm fame) plays Boris Yellnikoff, a caustic, retired physicist who walks with a limp due to a failed suicide attempt. Now, Boris teaches chess to “zombie-minded imbeciles.” Evan Rachel Wood plays Melodie, a naïve runaway from Mississippi, who stumbles into Boris’ life…Against all odds, the two marry and Melodie’s parents (played wonderfully by Patricia Clarkson and Ed Begley, Jr.) both, separately, collect her.
I’m not familiar with Larry David’s previous work, so I don’t know how great of this performance carries over from his acquire persona; but David is playing the Woody Allen role here to perfection. David perfectly captures the neurotic, arrogant genius that is Boris and recites Allen’s dialogue as if it comes straight from his have thoughts. Of course, this is a film filled with mammoth performances as can be expected from a film by Woody Allen. Begley, Jr. is particularly surprising as Melodie’s father…And while some may not be too impressed by Wood’s performance as Melodie, she’s very convincing and cute.

This is truthfully one of Allen’s best comedies and an all-around huge film. The dialogue here is typical, philosophical, sarcastic Allen…But it doesn’t impartial elicit chuckles, but full-on, laugh-out-loud laughter. It’s a very shining film that not ONLY ranks as one of Allen’s best comedies, but one of his best films. I don’t sight how this film has not received the amount of praise it deserves, because I clearly saw something all the critic’s didn’t. While the past few years have shown a return to produce for Allen, this film stands as a terrific achievement in the Allen catalogue. It’s quite honestly one of the best films I’ve seen this year and it’s not to be missed.
GRADE: A
I will inappropriate this film in my top five Woody Allen films which include: Annie Hall, Hannah and Her Sisters, Interiors,
and Sleeper.
Laughed out loud for many of the segments and the script. Perfect cure on a rainy day.
Thank you Woody Allen!
