To Rome with Love is just a bluff, the work of a man who's probably tired, or even worse, of a man who doesn't have anything else to say. This is the first impression when watching this movie, which lacks all the nice dialogues that are always part of Allen filmography. The characters are also just poor, and so is the acting, only exceptions are Alec Baldwin and Penelope Cruz. The story is just not interesting at all, so as the portrait of Rome, which seems so fake and untrue. Even a TV Italian commercial has a better direction (and much better photography) than this horrible movie. I mean, you are making a movie about Rome, not about Cleveland (with all respect for the city in Ohio. My idea is that Woody Allen just kept taking naps and left everything in the hands of some unknown Italian director, only this might explain this result.
A huge disappointment in every way you look at it.
