To Rome With Love (2012)

Woody Allen gets commissioned by the City of Rome to make a "Woody Allen comedy" without realising his best comedies are about love affairs with cities.

To Rome With Love lacks the sincerity of Midnight in Paris but it's funny enough.

It's a generic enough, amiable enough romcom set in Rome, showcasing the sights and sounds of the city. For comedy fans, it's a genuinely funny film with great comic timing and dialogue, with four stories based on the simple theme of infamy and notoriety.
