Film Freak 2014 - Magic in the Moonlight


How delightful seeing a Woody Allen film on a Sunday morning. Magic in the Moonlight is his latest and it stars the dreamy Emma Stone and one of my least favourites Colin Firth. But together they are charming.

Jackie Weaver also shows Woody Allen likes his Aussie ladies after the wonderful Cate B shimmered in his previous masterpiece Blue Jasmine.



The film is just sublime and super easy to watch. The old school music that kicks off at the start and the end just make this a real film experience from start to conclusion.

Emma Stone is just simply wonderful in this picture, she shines and her wardrobe is divine.

It's a well made film with some wonderful one liners, 97 minutes in running time too which always ticks a box for me although near the end after a speedy straight to the point start it does feel a little long. However this soon passes and the end credits roll.

The film is good light entertainment and one I could really recommend to all. Probably my age bracket (30+) and above would be more than at home with this picture.

The all important star rating, let's give this a bright and light 3.75 Stars for this Magic in the Moonlight.
