Genres & Description

Action Comedy Crime Drama Mystery

6.6 / 10

A new philosophy professor arrives on a small town campus near Newport, Rhode Island. His name, Abe Lucas. His reputation : bad. Abe is said to be a womanizer and an alcoholic. But what people do not know is that he is a disillusioned idealist. Since he has become aware of his inability to change the world, he has indeed been living in a state of deep nihilism and arrogant desperation. In class, he only goes through the motions and outside he drinks too much. But as far as sex is concerned, he is just a shadow of himself now: depression is not synonymous with Viagra! For all that, he can't help being attracted to one of his students, pretty and bright Jill Pollard. He enters into a relationship with her which remains platonic, even if Jill would not say no to more. The situation remains unchanged for a while until, one day, in a diner, Abe and Jill surprise a conversation that will change the course of their lives dramatically...

loved this movie. i liked the part where she was like you suffer from despair and selfhate yupppp . great movie as it was poetic and natural. the characters had a natural sense for passion and learning as they were in a college environment. needed this to influence my life. - @Thursday, August 6, 2015 12:04 AM

If a high-powered "auteur" like Woody Allen can bang his teenage stepdaughter then translate his obvious fantasies onto the big screen, well I for one welcome our 21st Century Roman Polanski doppleganger. Old men leering around stuffy institutions for younger women while obviously intelligent women roll over (literally as well) and turn to sexual putty for those same men. Sounds like the blueprint for the last 5 or so films by old Woody, eh? - @Wednesday, July 22, 2015 12:56 PM

I adore Mr. Allen, but will be skipping this one. Joaquin Phoenix is a human atrocity. - @Monday, July 20, 2015 12:18 AM

it seems from the trailer that there's going to be some big revelation about for joaquin feeling better halfway throught the trailer. Some dark secret reason for his happiness.  I guees it's going to be some absurd reason like he randomly murdered someone, randomly or  for an "irrational" reason. - @Saturday, May 16, 2015 2:18 AM

Ha! Oh yeah date a younger woman that'll cure clinical depression. Allen's lost it. - @Wednesday, May 6, 2015 6:55 PM

Most of the comments are baseless and immature.  This an adult comedy.  The characters are a part of a world that consists of values, morals, principles and standards.  This world is alien to the American idol/Kanye West generation.  People incapable of deep, substantive relationships would not understand this movie. - @Thursday, April 30, 2015 5:23 PM

I think Woody needs to stick with Action movies instead of trying to explore new boundaries. - @Thursday, April 30, 2015 5:17 PM
