Scenes From A Mall - 1991 - 5/10
Fans knew this wasn’t a “Woody” film. Knew it suffered scathing reviews.
Nevertheless, we viewed.
Woody Allen and Bette Midler play a happily married couple whose marriage has hit a crisis.
Allen and Midler show great chemistry, yet their characters are extremely dislikeable.
They bicker, squabble and lash out. Inside the mall, at a time when malls had become less popular.
The movie feels improvised, or poorly edited.
Mazursky attempting Altman, without the latter’s touch.
