The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The good: In this refreshingly character-driven story, Cate Blanchett gives such a raw, convincing performance that she disappears entirely into her deeply troubled character, Jasmine.The premise is intriguing, and the story has a haunting quality that stayed with me long after the credits rolled.The bad: The hallmark of any film where nuanced characters take center stage is making the audience feel sympathy for even the most unsympathetic people. Unfortunately, this film missed the mark and I wasn't remotely invested in Jasmine's slow decent into madness. It was horrifying to watch the character unravel, but when all is said and done, Woody Allen missed an opportunity to help us really understand the complex narcissist portrayed by Blanchett.The bottom line: If you're looking for an outstanding character-driven film with some levity, you'll be better off exploring other options. I should also add I'm not sure this film qualifies as a "dark comedy." To call any form of mental illness "funny" diminishes the severity of life-altering conditions that are anything but humorous.

Blue Jasmine is a fine movie which gives us a sobering look at the life of a high-society woman thrown back into 'normal life'. There are no clichès or gimmicks here, just very realistic dialogue that centers around the base of what our human nature often pushes us to do. This movie let's us view the competing ideas of happy life relative to different people's experience.

I have recently lost interest in Woody Allen movies. I just got worn down by too many not-so-hot movies. So my plan was to put "Blue Jasmine" on and fast forward to the Dice Clay parts. But as soon as the movie began I couldn't bring myself to miss any of it. Wow. I sucked me in like few movies ever have. The normally annoying Cate Blanchett delivers a performance of a lifetime. The rest of the cast is outstanding. Even the always detestable Louis C.K. was good. It's a terrific movie.

They really brought out lots of delicate and rare emotions. I'm in awe of how the actors can play such parts in front of a camera and a crew.
