As luck is on Chris' (Meyers) side, a sweet looking Chloe (Mortimer) falls in love with him, a woman with a complete package, with money, with a complete family, even a good job upgrade for him, etc. Nonetheless "ungrateful" Chris still falls for a different kind of girl, a hot sexy Nora (Johansson) and begin an affair
It happens to us. Such is an ordinary event of life journey, an affair with a tempting hot woman, who is making a man's blood boiled (even though now Chris has all, has been given an American dream, including a sweet stabile cute woman). And the story of Match Point is also that of an ordinary progression, from point A to B, then from B to C. Even all the characters besides the main character, are conveniently providing this linear story, with perfect lines bordering suspension of disbelief. Why then, a story like this, still engaging? Well because it is. We are simple men and women, and when a story relates to us in such a true sounding with part of our life, we enjoy it, we want to know what next, and how it solved. Then we look for some little things to takeaway from a film (eg Match Point). Story maker sometimes allegedly added this little things after a story writing is finished, or sometimes it's the idea that started it all
Match Point tells a different story than Allen's usual film, because it's almost a normal movie, where all the characters speak just almost normal. Much more normally, Allen's film, well you know, Allen's style; Where every characters' line going towards possible comic. Anyway, arriving near Match Point ending, Chris will be facing difficult choices.
