It’s one thing that Woody Allen’s recent movies add up to a wholesale indictment of the human species, and that his characters are pretty much a collection of self-involved, conniving creeps of various species. That’s an entirely defensible view of the world. But when you throw in the fact that Allen’s storytelling has become lazy and contrived, and that his perception of social and cultural geography is based, at best, on decades-old stereotypes, the whole experience of watching casts of talented and over-eager actors try to make sense of his nonsensical scripts becomes increasingly strained and bizarre.
