Durante 16 años, Alice Tate ha sido sistemáticamente ignorada por su marido, mimada por la riqueza y tranquilizada por el aburrimiento, pero cuando de manera inesperada se enamora de un músico muy sexy e impulsívamente consulta a un misterioso herbolario chino para que le aconseje, Alice comienza un loco viaje a un nuevo e inexplorado mundo lleno de posibilidades. Según va decubriendo quien es t cuales son sus prioridades, Alice deberá ebfrentarse a sus miedos mas profundos y decidir hasta donde está dispuesta a llegar para alcanzar el amor...y lo que está dispuesta a arriesgar para cambiar su destino. (Lauren Films)

I smiled at the clever ending of refined Alice, eagerly anticipating how the next herbs would affect and admired the gentle closeness of fantastic flashbacks. However, there is a bit of a lack of masculine element. The usual wisecracks are purely Mia Farrow's jurisdiction this time, and while she is amazing as usual, as a character actress, she has a bit of trouble with that lightness. And the slow pace, which, by Woody's standards, is more generous in terms of duration, is a huge obstacle.

A Woody Allen fairy tale. The humor is scarce, but it's there ("Nothing fazes a New York cabbie!", the muse, the final party), the main character is naivety and tenderness personified, the pleasant story is easy to predict (but what kind of a fairy tale would it be then, right?).... What I liked most was the character of "Doctor" Yang and his supply of herbs. I'd take the invisibility herb every now and again.
