Review of Match Point (2005) by Andrew B — 29 Apr 2010
A gripping drama about infidelity. A great screenplay from Woody Allen as he takes a new direction towards the melodrama. Chris Wilton (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), after having an affair with his friend's ex-fiance (Scarlett Johansson), decides he must cover up the affair to maintain his standard of living amongst the London elite.
The final thirty minutes is genuinely tense, but the film overall is let down by average performances from the two leads.
