Woody Allen again casts spell with pleasing 'Magic'

With "Magic in the Moonlight," Woody Allen has made a good Woody Allen movie, in all that the phrase implies. That is, it's good on its own, but it's also good when compared against Allen's body of work. It's very much in the pattern of this filmmaker: From the white-on-black opening credits, to the 1920s music on the soundtrack, to the nostalgic-sounding title, Allen is keeping the 20th century safe in the 21st. For those keeping score, this is the 10th film released during Allen's 70s - he turns 79 in December - with one more film to go.
