Manhattan Murder Mystery Review

Messages: This film about couples and how people who love each other get along sends a mostly positive, if comic, message about long-term relationships.

Role models: Woody Allen and Diane Keaton have what appears to be a very normal marriage, and the whiff of intrigue surrounding their neighbor's mysterious behavior adds some spice to the relationship. They doggedly try to determine if a neighbor has murdered his wife. They follow him around, break into his apartment to snoop, and lie to him about their motives. In the end, their behavior may or may not be justified.

Violence: The couple at the center of the film suspects their neighbor has murdered his wife and spend much of the film wondering if any foul play has actually occurred. By the end, there's a dead body, a chase scene, and some comic gunplay.

Sex: No sex, though some discussion of sex and suggestive comments.

Language: Occasional swearing, including "s--t" and "damn."

Drinking, drugs and smoking: Some social drinking at restaurants and small gatherings in apartments.
