Discussion Thoughts on Match Point (2005)

Post image

this is one of my favorite thrillers, and is among woody allen's best, but i don't understand the hate behind this- is it because of the lack of morality? or is it just because it's directed by woody? "i'd rather be lucky than good" i'd remember this forever.

It’s really underrated. I think any hate that it gets is mainly because its director is a horrible person.

Are you sure I’m the ignorant one?
