If you do not appreciate (1) the unique cultural quirks of the American upper middle class (2) the unique cultural quirks of the French upper middle class (3) a film that is more concerned with character development than with plot development then you will not enjoy this film. If, however, you enjoy film as a meditation of unique moments, regardless of whether it “gets somewhere”, you may find some very rewarding moments here. This is the first film in which I noticed Naomi Watts because, though her part was minor, her quiet grace was the emotional heart of the film.

Upon first viewing I didn't like this film. But I caught it on tv a second time and actually really enjoyed it. Since then I've seen it numerous times and now own a copy. It's really not a comedy in its true form. There are some funny moments but the gem about it is that it details the French v American customs. For that alone, anyone who enjoys French cinema and or artists would enjoy this one.

I could't see , because the frezz!!

It took two people and put them sound asleep by 9:00 p.m. There was absolutely no point to this movie. Don't waste your money..!

Anger is the only emotion this movie evokes of me...save your money for a foot-long Subway sandwich lunch tomorrow instead! What a waste of good group of talent!

This is probably the worst Parisian inspired film I have ever set my eyes on. It has more twist and turns than a rollercoaster, and poor Kate Hudson was absolutely terrible. Paris is a gorgeous city and they did not take advantage of the landscape instead they decided to go from country home to maids quarters. I don't know what they set out to accomplish when they made this film but I felt like asking for my 3.99 rental fee back.

Okay everyone below me is well quite inept when it comes to reviewing movies. I believe this movie was fabulous do not listen to any of them unless they gave it a good review. This movie was so fresh and how did i not make sense? It was to the point, it was about a divorce...that effects so many people throughout the movie...sort of like a catalyst. It had subtle humor, so it was definitely more a of a dram/romantic movie. If you do not like those types of movies you should not be watching them. To conclude this movie was lovely, fresh, intriguing and just so delightful!

I couldn't finish it. So disappointing.

It was a pleasure watching this film. Watts and Hudson in Paris is a good lesson in the awkwardness of clashing cultures. Given the Merchant/Ivory duo and a screenplay by Ruth Prewar Jhabvala you would think it would be a big, charming movie. Instead it is a little, cute movie that tires to be a bit dark, but can't pull it off. There is no way to take this movie seriously and that's ok for a Friday night viewing.

This movie is a love letter to Paris the way a Woody Allen movie pays homage to NYC. Its also a coming of age movie, a superbly cast family ensemble and a romance intermingled with moments of drama, shopping, eating and generally all things french. Girls night in favourite SATC style movie before our beloved new yorkers hit the big screen.
