Robert P @Superbad Sep 20, 2026 This movie = a *2.5* star Movie! See more James B. @JamesBass Apr 27, 2026 As a longtime Woody Allen fan who has seen nearly his entire filmography—including the ones I couldn't finish, like Rifkin’s Festival—I found Cassandra’s Dream to be a pleasant surprise. First off, ignore any "comedy" labels; this is a grim, serious drama much closer in tone to Match Point or the darker threads of Crimes and Misdemeanors. While it may not sit among his absolute masterpieces, it’s far from his worst work. The plot is engaging and packed with enough twists to keep you guessing. The acting is truly top-tier; I was impressed to see Sally Hawkins and recent Oscar winner Hayley Atwell (who starred in Hamnet) alongside a stellar cast. There are a few lighter beats early on, but the story quickly evolves into a morose, gripping tale. I’d definitely recommend this one—not just for Allen completionists, but for anyone who enjoys a solid, moody thriller.

It has a solid premise and a strong cast, including Ewan McGregor and Colin Farrell, but it never fully reaches its potential. The film tries to build tension around moral dilemmas and consequences, but the pacing feels uneven and the story doesn’t hit as hard as it should. There are moments where it gets interesting, but they’re spaced out by slower, less engaging scenes. It’s not bad, just kind of forgettable compared to stronger films in the same genre. Overall, I’d give it a 5/10—it’s watchable, but doesn’t really stand out in the end. See more Bob J @RT41324437 Feb 2, 2026 Excellent story. No one is gay. They're male friends. Ignore the hate. See more Frank C @Frank146 Jan 6, 2026 I do not get all the negative reviews. It just seems like it's the thing to do for Woody Allen films later in his body of work. Colin Farrell puts on an Oscar worthy performance. The whole cast is superb in their roles. Great plot that treads familiar territory on familial tension. Entertaining mix of drama and suspense. Typically great direction by the maestro. See more Scott E @RT19581245 Sep 14, 2025 Woody Allen's movies have gone way downhill. They used to be funny, now they are about people doing dirty deeds.
