Woody Allen's masterpiece...

"Chapter One. He was as tough and romantic as the city he loved. Beneath his black-rimmed glasses was the coiled sexual power of a jungle cat. I love this. New York was his town, and it always would be..."

So much about this film was said since it's release in 1979, that I feel that I won't say anything new here. But I'm going to write something about it anyways, because I love this film.

Isaac Davis (Woody Allen) is a divorced writer of TV shows unhappy with his job. His ex-wife, Jill (Meryl Streep) left him to live with another woman and is writing a book about her relationship with... read more

One of Woody's master piece, Manhattan shows the complexity of the relationships in a simple and funny way (Allen's best charecteristic).
With quick jokes about judaism, the city of new york, relationships, religion and philosophy mixed with the cultural side of Allen, makes this film a classical one.
A film that you will see more than one time.

"19.04. PC/TV, 2nd viewing DIRECTED BY Woody Allen I think this just edges out Annie Hall as my favorite Woody Allen film - so far, at least. Even if Annie Hall may have the funnier moments and more memorable characters, I prefer the black & white cinematography and gorgeously atmospheric depiction of New York here. The scene where Allen's character lies on the sofa and lists the things that make him happy is really heart-warming. "

“Very good movie. It depicts the reality. Really, I mean we let go of the person who actually deserves to be in our life but get stick with those who shouldn't be there at all. Age matters a lot but sometimes, it doesn't. And this movie has shown that reality.

I highly enjoyed this movie too just like Annie Hall. I just love the dialogues. My favorite one here: " You're...You're God's answer to Job. You know, you would have ended all argument between them. He'd have pointed at you and he'd have said, "I do lot of terrible things but I can also make one of these" . And Job would have said, 'Ok you win'".” read more

" February 8th: Instant watch, computer Overall opinion: Meh First Woody Allen movie ever. I always laughed ay how my mother rages at Woody Allen movies, absolutely hates them, but I sort of get where she's coming from now. Why should we care about all these vapid people? It takes so long to show they even have emotions. I dunno man. There's really only so much you can watch a bunch of well-off white people in NYC complain about affairs and dating and their deep emotional scars and psychologi"

" Watched January 24th - Netflix Streaming - 1st Viewing "I can't express anger, that's one of the problems I have - I grow a tumor instead." - Isaac Davis It shouldn't come as a surprise that my favorite Woody Allen movies were made in the 80's - but I did like Annie Hall, so I looked forward to watching Manhattan - it has the same type of characters and humor as Annie Hall, but I didn't think the results were quite as good - Allen again plays a deeply neurotic New Yorker with a complicated l"
