Some die-hard Woody Allen fans may insist the poster-child for neurotic, narcissistic New Yorkers has still got it in him, but many more fans of the director's work insist his real creativity dried up when the drama of his real life outstripped that in his features. Vicky Cristina Barcelona, a bruising, hypnotic meditation on romantic triangles, marks not so much a return to form as his first true evolution in tone and style since the early '90s. Wooden Scarlett Johansson is mined brilliantly as a foil to the charismatic effusions of Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz, and for once, Allen's dialogue and cinematography prove rather fluid.
