Cafe Society


Eisenberg’s Allen is predictably on point in a bland revisionist autobiography augmented by woody narration of its author. Amusing characters and quasi-Shakespearian setup fray and unwind instead of tying up neatly. Perhaps Allen is a Coen father, as this feels like a subpar Serious Man meets a bored Barton Fink.
