Woody Allen’s IRRATIONAL MAN is about a tormented philosophy professor who finds a will to live when he commits an existential act. Philosophy professor Abe Lucas (Joaquin Phoenix) is at rock bottom emotionally, unable to find any meaning or joy in life. Abe feels that everything he’s tried to do, from political activism to teaching, hasn’t made any difference.
Soon after arriving to teach at a small town college, Abe gets involved with two women: Rita Richards (Parker Posey), a lonely professor who wants him to rescue her from her unhappy marriage; and Jill Pollard (Emma Stone), his best student, who becomes his closest friend. While Jill loves her boyfriend Roy (Jamie Blackley), she finds Abe’s tortured, artistic personality and exotic past irresistible. Even as Abe displays signs of mental imbalance, Jill’s fascination with him only grows. Still, when she tries to make their relationship a romantic one, he rebuffs her.
Pure chance changes everything when Abe and Jill overhear a stranger’s conversation and become drawn in.
Once Abe makes a profound choice, he is able to embrace life to the fullest again. But his decision sets off a chain of events that will affect him, Jill and Rita forever.
IRRATIONAL MAN is Woody Allen’s 50th feature film.

The moment Woody Allen's name popped up, the whole movie was explained XD
-
Jesus Christ. Another movie directed by Woody Allen about a very special sad sack who gets his life together with the help of a much younger woman. YAWN
-
sooo..... what is this about exactly?
-
As soon as I saw woody Allen’s Name ... ugh no thank you
-
Still cannot imagine seeing a film made by that horrid man. Sometimes the art and the artist are inseparable.
-
dumb movie. beautiful Emma.
-
This was one of the best recent works of Allen, and the trailer does not reveal the dark turn the movie takes. SPOILER: The conversation at the table behind Emma is the key. After that, it is clear this is not a love story at all. And the suspense in the final scene, in front of the elevator, was almost unbearable for me. In general, amazing movie with unusual story and some thrilling shots.

Hating a person's art because of what they do in their personal life is like hating someone's child due to the parent's misdeeds. This movie was brilliant, the story unfolded in unpredictable directions and there's a lot of brain food for philosophy lovers. The duologue is snappy and witty and Emma Stone is beyond sensational. Joaquin is also incredible as always but she steals the show with her level of range and complexity.

I would watch it coz it has emma stone, but it has woody allen the perv, so..........

Just excited to say I went to school where this was filmed, and that is the main highlight of this film
-
This movie wasn't fun or memorable. But Emma Stone is pretty and it's fun to watch on screen. Phoenix being cast was not best choice. He lacks the ability to be off beat in the kind of light hearted way Allen characters need to be to pull off the tone.

the ending was everything 👍👌
