Haa good stuff. I agree with a lot of it, except I thought SCOOP was one of the worst films ever made.. though YOU WILL MEET A TALL DARK STRANGER is somehow even worse. Not a good decade for Allen. And yeah I HATE MATCH POINT, I HATE VICKY CHRISTINA BARCELONA............ I think CASSANDRA'S DREAM isn't as bad as a lot of people make it out to be, nor ANYTHING ELSE (this had Ricci and Biggs in it right? They were also in PROZAC NATION together.. odd).
There's a film he acts in but didn't write/direct called THE FRONT I quite like. Have you seen SCENES FROM A MALL? It's pretty terrible.
The only thing about MANHATTAN is Allen dates, like, a 12 year old in it. Found that kinda odd, since he's like 40 in it. The opening 10 minutes might be his best ever though.
And yeah Judy Davis is so awesome in his movies.
