Looking, I realized that the word of miracles in this case should be taken in quotation marks, since there are no miracles there, there are only unpleasant life situations, which Woody Allen often shows, all this contrasts with the elegant picture of the summer beach, near which the action unfolds. This time he starred a completely new cast of actors - Kate Winslet, James Belushi, Juno Temple and Justin Timberlake, on behalf of the hero of which, in general, the narrative is being conducted, and since this hero is a romantic, then the narrative of the plot at first is of this nature, although at the end the romantic construction is completely destroyed. A young woman, Caroline (Juno Temple), arrives unexpectedly at her father, with whom she fell out five years ago, in the hope that she will not be found here by the gangsters stalking her after she was forced to turn over her gangster husband to the FBI. Her father, Humpty (James Belushi), works on a beach merry-go-round and lives with his second wife, Jeanie (Kate Winslet), a former actress now working as a waitress, and his stepson, an aspiring pyromaniac. The wife rushes, not satisfied with his life, and again steps on the same rake that once destroyed her previous marriage, cheats on her husband with beach rescuer Mickey (Justin Timberlake). And then begins quite everyday melodramatic story, in which the characters manifest themselves in different ways, some very unsightly. Woody Allen remains true to himself, we can not say that the film is outstanding, but it is quite in his style and those who like him, you can watch, especially since the acting is quite at a good level.
