Irrational Man

USA 2015, 95 minutes
Dir. Woody Allen
Rating: [M] Sex scenes and offensive language
Genres: Drama

Feat. Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, Parker Posey, Jamie Blackley

Synopsis: Existential drama for the more ardent Woody Allen fan, with Joaquin Phoenix as a tormented philosophy professor who considers murdering a corrupt judge to find meaning in his life. References to Kant, Sartre and Dostoevsky abound.

““The same old” is Allen’s default mode, and here it trucks along to a modest insight and an arbitrary twist-of-fate ending”~Ignatiy Vishnevetsky, The A.V. Club

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) Allen churns out another but at least in this one he attempts a bit of black comedy (passable). As usual there is plenty of talking. ~Tubbs
