It's the weirdest thing, none of my friends liked Vicky Christina Barcelona, and yet they're all rooting for this film to win. I didn't think this movie was so special. Everyone's dialogue was witty and over-intellectualized, the story line was silly, and the setting was quite pretty. It was enjoyable, but not more so then any other Woody Allen film from the last 10 years. I don't understand its high praise.
