I must respectfully disagree

I saw this on video just after it played in theatres, and I never figured out whether Mr. Allen intended these characters to elicit laughter or empathy (perhaps both?) but in my case it was neither. I think the hand-held camera was meant to convey a sense of documentary-style realism, but if I'm going to be a voyeur, I want to spy on *interesting* people! That's my main problem with this movie--I found all of the main characters to be extremely dislikeable, and not in an entertaining way. The kind of people I would avoid in real life. I just couldn't wait for it to end. One of my all-time worst film experiences (and I like a lot of Woody Allen's other films)...
