I liked it a bit more than others here. The twist was unexpected. I really do think Scarlet Johansson was unfairly criticized because she acted her age in this one- after all, I think we all forget she�s only 21.
When you consider her body of work so far, the fact of her young age is rather astonishing.

Match Point appears to be a homage to Hitchcock in both concept and style, but with an inspired twist that I doubt Hitchcock would've gotten away with. IMHO, this film is borderline high art; Woody scores a winner here, with few faults.

  " With an inspired twist that I doubt Hitch..."
  You are fantasying...Even if the plot may vaguely remember the master of suspence, it is on a completely different level!
  One being an intellectual, the other a sensual pulpy, Freudian, symbolistic director.
  How do you say? Apples and pears.

    BTW, in spite of having a superior continental twist, all of your serves have gone wide; as your humble chair umpire, I'm calling a double fault in your analysis of Woody & Hitch. ;^)

Well o well...I consider-Her body. ( point )
She was not very good in this one, but I have hope that she will become a good actress.
With Woody she will certainly got the right finish...
