From the story point of view, "Mighty Aphrodite" is indeed creative, and director Woody Allen's expression is also more creative. The most obvious is the appearance of choirs that mimic ancient Greek dramas in the film. These choirs dressed in black robes and masks always dance and sing between the passages of the film, commenting on the plot and characters, and their lines are both ancient and modern, and they are pretentious. The posture is novel and funny. Especially the choir leader, even going in and out of the plot, talking directly with Lenny, this is a typical Woody Allen approach. Then there is the comedy treatment in the film. Woody uses his short and weak Jewish intellectual image to form a sharp contrast with the tall and fit prostitute character, adding a lot of jokes to the film
