Match Point

Match Point is directed by Woody Allen, and stars Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Emily Mortimer and Scarlett Johansson, amongst other. A young tennis trainer (Jonathan) starts training some rich banking guy. He subsequently meets the sister (Emily), parents, and then fiancée (Scarlett) of this rich guy. He starts dating the sister, and slowly progresses into the father's business. Very quickly, it shows that he is very interested in the fiancée.

The acting is quite interesting, Jonathan plays this character, constantly on edge, twitchy, crazy guy, but also very smart. He is a great manipulative character and gets his way, or sort of. The all movie is about relationship, betrayal, love, murder. I think one can recognise the style of Woody Allen in this picture. It is a good movie, which I would recommend to probably anyone as it is not too disturbing, though quite weird stuff :)
