Charlie (Nicholas Cage) is a good policeman who is kind, gentle, and loves children, but he has a vain and selfish wife Muriel (Rosie Perez) who is noisy like all couples who do not match up. Constantly, but Charlie always tolerated. One day Charlie's wife said that she dreamed of her father and decided that it had a special meaning, and told Charlie to buy lottery tickets. The kind-hearted Charlie had no money to tip Eva (Bridget Fonda) during breakfast, and agreed that if he wins the lottery, he will be divided into half. If he does not win, he will make up the tip the next day. No Real Eva didn't expect a miracle to happen, and Charlie's lottery won a huge prize of four million dollars. Charlie, who kept his promise, gave half of the bonus to Eva, allowing Eva to get rid of a life of bankruptcy and poverty, despite the grievances of his wife. The wife of the rich man was chatting and laughing in the upper class, and Charlie and the equally kind and enthusiastic Eva got closer. The wife took the two to court to get back their own property, and Charlie and Eva lost the case. The two who planned to leave the city spent the last night in their coffee shop and gave Williams (Wendell Pierce), a penniless black man in the rainy night, a bowl of hot soup. This black journalist who had worked hard for ten years in New York City wrote the night’s experience in the newspaper. People all over New York City knew the story of this kind-hearted couple and sent them their own tips. With letters like snowflakes, Charlie and Eva relied on the tips of kind people all over New York City to redeem their coffee shops and live a happy life.
"Allure" shows the audience the sad and happy stories that ordinary people may encounter in life. Although life is always full of uncertainty, fortunately, the ending of the film is that kindness defeats greed, which makes the audience feel great comfort. . (Review of "Shandong Legal News")
"Allure" is a romantic comedy about the consequences of doing the right thing. Although it focuses on the small people, the plot is very sweet. It is not easy to make a movie about a character, especially for a smart adult, everyone here is a good person. The kindness in the film is often dull. The photographers of the film kept the scenery of New York city very soft, dusty and soft flashes turned New York into a magical airport, where ordinary people can win millions of dollars, and sweet love can bloom. This seems to be A far-fetched goal is like being lucky to win the lottery, but the urban transformation in this movie has an effect in its humble and pleading way. Of course, the film’s producer is a bit suspected of cheating. Their romantic feelings come from the sweet conception of the city in the 1940s, and the nostalgia is not as strong as in "Seattle Sleepless". The film also has a romantic taste, but it just drifts off the screen. (Reviewed by the Los Angeles Times)
