About this movie

Two young American women, Vicky (Rebecca Hall) and Cristina (Scarlett Johansson) come to Barcelona for a summer holiday. Vicky is sensible and engaged to be married; Cristina is emotionally and sexually adventurous. In Barcelona, they're drawn into a series of unconventional romantic entanglements with Juan Antonio (Javier Bardem), a charismatic painter, who is still involved with his tempestuous ex-wife Maria Elena (Penélope Cruz). Set against the luscious Mediterranean sensuality of Barcelona, VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA is Woody Allen's funny and open-minded celebration of love in all its configurations.

I'm not much into Wood Allen film's, I guess I am not enough of an intellectual to really ‘get them’, but I enjoyed this film. I’m always down for a movie with Javier Bardem in it. I was pleasantly surprised to see Patricia Clarkson as well. It had a good cast, overall. I have to say that I enjoyed watching Penelope Cruz’s character not be the perfect woman she always plays, it was enjoyable to see her have some faults. I enjoyed the story, I seemed well-thought out and had you guessing at how it would end. I am loving the .25 rentals, it is a great way to see some movies I haven’t been too sure about seeing, but not having to walk away feeling like I might get ripped off. Watching it on my HTC Wildfire at work helps making the day go by quickly.

I was very excited to see this movie but feel like my time spent watching it was a waste. Not only did almost nothing happen, it happened so slowly. I would definitely not recommend this to anyone.
