Long-winded story directors no longer bother to express or instill anything

The lingering story begins with a desperate divorced woman seeking a so-called fortune teller. The disputes and noise in her daughter's house, her husband's abandonment and indulgence, her own sadness and confusion, are actually the intersection and development of the lives of four people in two families. Each one has experienced ups and downs and fluctuations, very chaotic and very simple, and the final ending is like the real life we ​​face. Where there is a real ending, it is a continuation!
I haven't seen much of Woody Allen's movies, but I have heard praise from others. This film should be a low-cost investment. Several chaotic stories look ordinary, but ordinary things are difficult to shoot, and it is even more difficult to resonate. However, in this film, the director did a good job, and the contradictions are handled well, which makes you always attracted when you watch it, and the handling of some quarrels is even more immersive, which is very good.
As for the actors' performances, not to mention, they are all old actors. There is no need to say more about the two old people. Naomi is one of my favorite actresses. Fully interpret all the emotions that the heroine in the film should express, praise and anger, the performance level in this film can be scored 10 points!
In the end, in general, the film is still very good, the story, the director, and the actors are all top-notch, but this genre is really not my favorite, and the end of the film doesn't seem to end, except for the old lady who seems to have a good ending, Others are unresolved and too bland. Perhaps the director expressed various emotions and attitudes towards life through the narration at the beginning and the end, as well as the development of the stories of the characters in the film. Betrayal, unexpected encounters in love, bottlenecks in career, fading of love, etc... Perhaps, he didn't want to express or instill anything, but just told a story, repeating what Shakespeare said: "Life is full of hustle and bustle and The commotion, but in the end, has no meaning." This is his understanding, but unfortunately I didn't realize it, ⊙﹏⊙b Khan.
Therefore, as far as movie viewing recommendations are concerned, if you like plain and delicate ones, you can watch them, and the rest will be avoided.
