After Match Point, Scoop and Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Woody Allen is taking us back to his favourite place: Manhattan.Whatever works is a wonderful cruel and metaphysical comedy. Dialogues are so much fun (well, if you like Allen style).In sum, an excellent Woody Allen movie!

That's right, Laurence,
I watched the WHATEVER WORKS at the open air cinema and enjoyed it very much, especially the dialogues.

I saw it also and i liked it a lot, i came a little bit late, i am always late....so was sitting in the first row, but apart of this it was great, the dialogs and the relations mishmash. Self-fulfilling through sexual-relation whatever works? Truth?

Pretty classic Woody Allan stuff and funny in lots of places.
Well worth watching if you like his movies. Not in the same league as Barcelona though but worth the ticket price.

woody's back with his satirical take on society, and in this film he uses larry david ( from seinfeld) to portray woody in his typicical neurotic personality. ( although he's left out all the fears of cancerous brain tumers :-)
how "close to the bone" he is in this story about "love" between an older man and a younger woman..........classic woody. you either love him or hate him, but nobody remains indifferent.

Apparently the script was written with the greta Zero Mostel in mind.

Have to see it again.....to much information per minute. I'm to slow to "digest" the dialogues....Very funny at some parts.

Definitely this is an excellent Woody Allen but this is said from a true fan. Dialogues are a pure delight, full of inspired thoughts on life, love and fears.
This grumpy character is just fantastic and his Pygmalion role marvellous. It is so much fun to see the young girl changing from the naïve little lady to a sharp critic of our society to fall so easily into the trap designed by her mother. And her mother than discover the true joy of a pleasure driven sexuality… Yes some things are too much of a caricature but this is what I really love.
In a nutshell an excellent metaphysical comedy as you wrote above! Just enjoy it!
