This is classic Woody Allen material. If you know his other movies, then you will not be surprised. If it's your first (although i don't think there's one human being who doesn't know Allen), then you just might have a small shock.
Husbands and Wives, just as much as the other Woody Allen films, follows the same recipe, and it works out perfectly. As usual, the strong point of his movies is definetely the dialogue, which is absolutely flawless. The scenes look very real, too real, some people might say, and they are sometimes filmed with handycams, which gives them much more energy. The characters are carefully built, interesting and strong. Taking these facts in consideration, Allen manages to create a very good movie from a simple, normal plot: marriages, divorces, love.
