Sitting on the 15th place in The Greatest Directors of All Time list, Woody Allen is a talented writer, who has got more Oscars than fingers on both of your hands. And his next masterpiece To Rome with Love is likely to bring him another one (an Oscar, of course, not a finger). The events of the movie, that seem to be unconnected at the first blush, are masterfully intertwined with each other, mostly not physically, but spiritually, which is an Allen's bonanza anyway. The first story follows a famous NY architect, Jack (Jesse Eisenberg: 30 Minutes or Less, The Social Network) who is nothing more than a younger "reflection" of John (Alec Baldwin: The Good Shepherd, The Departed), who is trying to go back in the past to his youth. Another story is Antonio (Alessandro Tiberi) and Milly's (Alessandra Mastronardi) amorous drama which they are going through separately. This story also involves an Italian prostitute Anna (Penélope Cruz: Broken Embraces, Vicky Cristina Barcelona), and Italian cinema celebrity Luca Salta (Antonio Albanese). There are two other stories (or vignettes) that seem to be separated and unconnected but all of them are nothing more than beads on a curved string of life. By the way, Woody Allen has refuted the assumption of vignette intersection, leaving the audience an opportunity to decide what unites the stories.

Lee Holloway returns in her native town returns as an attractive girl. She suffered minor behavioral problems, but these oddities do not interfere with Lee to get a job a secretary to a local eccentric lawyer to Mr. Gray. To get started, everything seemed quite normal: to print, to process documents, to bring coffee, etc., until Mr. Gray had not noticed that the grammar of the girl is not so good as we would like. Here is where the door opens in the same world that you usually imagine, and all the fun begins!"

Aaron Eckhart has established itself as a great orator in, for whom are ready to follow both his followers and opponents (Thank You for Smoking), and even if he plays a loser (Hello, Bill!). His charm and an honest look impossible to doubt, and Eckhart's character is more interesting then Aniston's character, who modestly speaking takes a back seat. There is minimum or none of humorous component in this romantic melodrama, aside the main characters: Layne (Dan Fogler), Agent Burke, Eloise and her colleague Marty (Judy Greer), which is very believable and normally obsessed with sex. Extremely sentimental spectator will whisk away the tears every 8 minutes during the first 40 minutes. Toward the end of the movie the stream of tears, will be o only increasing, but more happiness will occur as well.
