Frankly i dont get the good reviews for this film. I love woody. I love the hilarity of love and death, sleeper, and the like to the poignancy of manhattan, hannah and her sisters, and husbands and wives. also who can forget about the all around perfection of annie hall. However curse of the jade scorpion is absolutely horrendous. aside from my general dislike of helen hunt and most things she disgraces the screen with (aside from As Good As It Gets, she was wonderful there), these two have absolutely no chemistry. the hatred for each other seems completely forced. the entire film seems forced. honestly i could barely sit through it. come on woody give us another bullets over broadway or everyone says i love you. quit with this cutesy crap. ps i even really enjoyed small time crooks so im not all hard boiled and whatnot. this film was just complete and utter crap. definitely one of the worst of the year called one.
