I haven't seen many Woody Allen films, but I'm pretty sure he's played the exact same person in everything I've seen him in. He annoyed the crap out of me in Scoop. He's just not that funny or fresh. There is some wit to be found, but you've got to be paying attention -- and that's no easy task.
My real beef with the story was that there were only 2 possible outcomes, and neither one was going to be particularly entertaining. Turns out I was wrong... sort of. The final reveal was a twist of one of the 2 possibilities. Meh.
