    This sour, but occasionally amusing Woody Allen entry is no Manhattan or Hannah and Her Sisters but it does contain a few nuggets of truth about the foolish of people and their endlees desire for fulfillment and happiness. Woody begins by quoting Shakespeare that life is "... full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"; and follows this by demonstating how people are prone to wanting what they cannot have and are miserable even if they have attained the object of their desires. Not profound , of course, but still this theme is nicely pursued by Allen and his fine ensemble cast. Especially noteworthy are Naomi Watts and Anthony Hopkins. The offbeat and very funny Lucy Punch (Dinner for Schmucks), who seems to be forging a career portraying sluttish floozies, is a real scene-stealer. Unfortunately, the script leads to a conclusion that allows for plotlines and characters left dangling. For example: what would happen to the writer, Roy- if and when-his act of plagiarism was finally discovered. Again, unfortunately, Woody does not write sequels.
