(1 - 17) of 17 OFCS Rating: 71% Fresh Page   1   "the film's narrative journey is too superficial to accommodate the late shift in tone from light French farce to a more sober reflection on love, aging and loneliness."   Channel 4 Film   Anton Bitel "A quirky and smart multicultural arthouse comedy."   european-films.net   Boyd van Hoeij "Fortunately for all parties involved, Delpy goes beyond the mere comedy of embarrassment, though to be sure there is plenty of that as well."   Film Journal International   Chris Barsanti D "French actress/writer/director Julie Delpy ("Before Sunset") fails miserably with this Paris-set romantic farce where American girly-man Jack (Adam Goldberg) learns to loathe his slutty bipolar girlfriend Marion (Delpy)."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey 3/4 "There are certainly worse ways to kill 90 odd minutes of one's time than spending two days in Paris in the estimable company of "Woody" (Adam) and "Mia" (Julie)."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   David N. Butterworth A "The satirical probe of modern love among the not so young and restless is infectiously delightful."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz C- "Smug and grating, having the form of the low-key Richard Linklater films Delpy has worked on but none of the substance."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider B+ "Basically a wryly observed talkathon, the picture hits a few rough patches but is mostly a charming confection."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 4/5 "A very funny romantic tale that creatively plays around with the cultural clashes between Americans and French men and women."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 2/4 "It's uncomfortable to take a negative stance against something that is so plainly a labor of love. But the sad truth is that the movie doesn't offer enough to make it interesting or even diverting."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 1.5/5 "Delpy makes mistakes in this film by providing unnecessary narration... and assumptions about the audience from politics to sexual awareness"   7M Pictures   Kevin Carr 3/4 "It's about finding someone whose assets outweigh the flaws and hoping that that person is mature enough to do the same for you. Weighty and downbeat though that sounds, [Delpy's] film is delightfully light."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 3/4 "Makes one wonder if Delpy isn't unconsciously working through some residual, latent anger at Before Sunset co-star Ethan Hawke."   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 4/5 "This is a strong and assured debut behind the camera for Delpy and I am curious and eager to see what she does next."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 4.5/5 "Subtle and off-handed, gentle and relaxed, and utterly hysterical."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline B "As director, Delpy moves her fine cast with precision and grace. As screenwriter, she exhibits a sure hand at comedy. And, as an actress, she shows a wonderfully assured presence."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 3/4 "(Has) an acerbic sense of humor and a fantastic ear for struggling-relationship dialogue."   Charlotte Weekly   Sean O'Connell  (1 - 17) of 17 OFCS Rating: 71% Fresh Page   1
