2 Days in Paris movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times: Delpy has a knack for finding just the right details; filming in her own hometown, she fills the movie with funny cross-cultural observances. Read more
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune: Delpy's skill, which is considerable and wide-ranging, points to better, fuller films in her directorial future. Read more
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader: Satirical and casual in its approach, and Delpy's grasp of the material is assured. Read more
Richard Nilsen, Arizona Republic: The last time I laughed so hard at a movie, it was Nigel Tufnel telling us his amplifier went to 11. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: Sweet and discreet. Read more
Carina Chocano, Los Angeles Times: Delpy's wry, acerbic sense of humor and privileged perspective make her the ultimate outsider-insider, perfectly positioned to ask the most astute questions. Read more
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor: Much of the nattery byplay seems improvised, and the results are very hit and miss -- inspired contretemps alternate with gabfests that seem to go on forever. Read more
Tom Long, Detroit News: Bright and engaging a great deal of the time, but it ends up exhausted. Read more
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: [Delpy] stages it with a funny and diverting improv-y flow. Read more
Mark Bourne, Film.com: ...an impressive, funny urban comedy of manners from a suitably distinctive voice that I hope we'll hear again soon. Read more
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press: Delpy does the old-[Woody] Allen thing a lot better than most, and does for Paris what Allen did for Manhattan, making it look newly romantic even to those who have lived there all their lives. Read more
Christy Lemire, Associated Press: 2 Days in Paris may seem familiar, with its manic, walking-and-talking rhythms reminiscent of Woody Allen and Diane Keaton in the 1970s. But you never know where it's going, which is one of the film's greatest pleasures. Read more
Connie Ogle, Miami Herald: 2 Days in Paris proves Delpy's got an authentic ear for humor in two languages, and she turns the dewy-eyed notion of Paris as a city for lovers firmly and affectionately on its tete. Read more
John Anderson, Newsday: Delpy's script is less a tale than it is a series of character-revealing snapshots, so the personalities are all we have to work with. And they are not personalities that wear well at feature length. Read more
Anthony Lane, New Yorker: This is not a vanity project. It is an insanity project. Read more
David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture: The movie should be seen with a large, responsive audience -- the better to live with it in the moment instead of worrying about where it's going. Read more
Jack Mathews, New York Daily News: Delpy wrote the dialogue that gives the film its forward thrust, and 2 Days is a wonderful first feature. Read more
Kyle Smith, New York Post: The movie is just a situation salad, at least until the end, when things start to pull together a bit. Read more
Andrew Sarris, New York Observer: Ms. Delpy and Mr. Goldberg are clearly talented and versatile enough to make a more plausible and convincing couple, but the helter-skelter view of Paris in this film never gives them the chance. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: Read more
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer: A movie that is as acutely painful as it is acutely funny. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: 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. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: [Delpy has] created two original, quirky characters so obsessed with their differences that Paris is almost a distraction. I don't think I heard a single accordion in the whole film. Read more
Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com: As 2 Days in Paris zings along from one overamped frogs-vs.-Yanks cliche to the next, two things happen: Delpy's direction begins to give the characters more air and space, and you adjust to its hectic pace. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: It's possible to watch 2 Days in Paris and have absolutely no idea who's calling the shots. This is excellent news because it means that we gain a director without losing an actress. Read more
Dana Stevens, Slate: That this one is even bearable is a surprise; that it's occasionally insightful and hilarious is a treat. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Goldberg and Delpy also give their characters a wistful charm, and Delpy's zippy, dialog-heavy screenplay sparkles with wit. Read more
Jennie Punter, Globe and Mail: The film [has] a wonderfully natural, comfy feel. Delpy is worth watching both in front of and behind the camera. Read more
Richard Schickel, TIME Magazine: Delpy's humor [runs] to the black and the tossed off -- rather like her rather casual shooting style. She's more interested in hasty impressions than in formal elegance. Read more
Dave Calhoun, Time Out: Partly a study of cross-national relationships and partly a homecoming comedy on Delpy's part, 'Two Days in Paris' neatly balances stabs at both America and the French. Read more
Claudia Puig, USA Today: Some of it is funny and insightful; some makes you cringe. But it's still entertaining. Read more
Derek Elley, Variety: An entertaining, deliciously played walk-and-talker by helmer-writer-star Julie Delpy and co-star Adam Goldberg. Read more
Jim Ridley, Village Voice: With the dithery Marion playing off Jack's nattering nebbish of negativism, Delpy invokes the Woody Allen-Diane Keaton chemistry of the '70s as consciously as Allen referenced the European art movies of the '60s. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: Delpy is such an infectiously appealing personality, she almost wills this movie to work. And for laughs, Goldberg has some pretty funny moments as an eternally frazzled, put-upon neurotic who hates Paris and the French. Read more
