Very annoying characters who are far too articulate.
The only vaguely likeable character is the yoga/astrology woman played by Lysette Anthony, who we are kind of encouraged to mock. But at least she seems real and authentic.
Judy Davies' character is just awful and keeps clearing her throat in a really irritating way.
Mia Farrow's character has a horrible gulpy swallowy thing going on with her voice. But she is falsely accused of being passive-aggressive rather than just very humble. However, it doesn't really make sense that Liam Neeson's Michael suddenly falls for her at the end after being obsessed with her awful friend.
Woody Allen is just trying to make himself look like the reasonable character here.
Juliette Lewis has that annoying nasal whine going on as usual.
Sidney Pollack is genuinely scary in his violent rage towards the astrology woman (a fantastic piece of acting, though).
They all talk far too much and know too much - this is more of a thesis than a film that cinema-goers can emotionally engage with.
The hand-held camera darting about all over the place is really irritating too.
