Under-developed story and characters but the actors make the experience pleasant . Average movie. Not hopeful.

Just being in Paris in August it was fun to recognize many of the places. Tho I liked the film, not crazy about it, it was too long, too dark. And... I agree about the goofy relationships of older men and younger women. They were not very beleivable. I thought the men were charming. Looks are not everything. And as we all get from the movie. Paris is beautiful and definitely my city of lights! Full Review

Pointless, unfocused movie - boring. Just a shoot-from-the-hip, write about whatever drifts into your mind. It by no means showed a cross-section... f Paris - on the other hand, the underbelly, immigrants. It does not possess the beauty or sensitivity that you expect in a French movie. There were a couple of beautiful women, but the men were not only unattractive, they had charisma bypasses. Speaking and understanding French will not make this movie more interesting. Full Review

A wonderful film, if you like Frecnh movies as I do, Juliette and Roman Duris deliver wonderful, heartwarming performances and I do hope their... rmances won't be forgotten at award times (I'm pretty sure, they will be. Like last year, the movie: "The Flight of the Red Baloon," with a wonderful Julitte Binoche wasn't even mentioned.) Full Review

Klapisch's masterstroke was to place at the center of a movie a man, forced by circumstances, to stop and simply observe.Full Review

Paris is a funny, sad, romantic and deeply felt love letter to a great city. If you can't book a trip now, it's the next best thing.Full Review

Every character has life and depth. It's unusual for an episodic film to involve us so well in individual lives; as the narrative circles through their stories, we're genuinely curious about what will happen next.Full Review

Chicago Sun-Times

Has a mature tapestry of characters, a welcome sense of humor and, most crucially, a lovely Juliette Binoche.Full Review

Not much happens during the course of the movie but, as with all good dramas, the protagonists are richly drawn and the events of their lives become of interest.Full Review
