Review of Blue Jasmine

Blue Jasmine (2013)
4/10
Not impressed, just depressed...
26 January 2014
Giving chances to Woody Allen's work is… what I do but, Blue Jasmine didn't make that much of an impression to me. I admit I had high hopes after Midnight in Paris –which I found brilliant- but it didn't work out that well with this one.

Blue Jasmine tells a story about a woman who loses everything after getting a divorce from her crook husband. The film has an overall meaning (don't fall in love with money) but hasn't much to give to the audience than the multiple states of depression the "heroine" goes through.

The cast's consisted of a few good actors like Cate Blanchett and Alec Baldwin and that's just about it. It's been a low to average film. I don't think I'd recommend it to someone who wants to cheer up. Maybe the only people who would want to see it would be those who are related to the character's struggles. Then again, nothing raises the moral in the end
