Woody Allen's new film about Hollywood delivers laughs a plenty.

Woody Allen stars with Tea' Leoni, Debra Messing, George Hamilton, and Treat Williams in his latest take on Hollywood and the making of motion pictures.

This film brings Allen back to prominence as a comedic film maker that is able to make an audience laugh with dialogue not gross out jokes. It is also nice to see a movie in which the director can create a mood and a setting that makes you feel immediately comfortable.

The movie is about a one-time hot director played by Allen who has had a tough time for the last ten years, he has been divorced from his younger wife played by Tea Leoni and now he is stuck doing commercials in the snow covered mountains of Canada.

Leoni is now the fiancé of Treat Williams who is the head of Galaxy Studios, the film "The City That Never Sleeps" has been greenlit by Williams and now they need a director, Allen is perfect for the script, but how can he work for his ex-wife who is producing the film as well as the man whole stole her from him?

That is the question that lies at the heart of the film and it lends itself to some great comedic situations. Allen is great as the, get this, neurotic older guy who seems to always have a young woman on his arm.

The problem comes in when just two days before filming is to begin, Allen gets hysterical blindness and now must not blow his comeback chance. He must keep this malady a secret from everyone on the set.

The performances are top notch, hopefully this will get Leoni the recognition she truly deserves. The supporting cast of Debra Messing, Treat Williams and especially George Hamilton do great jobs.

It is nice to see Allen get back to a main stream film and I hope it finds it audience.
