Before watching this movie someone told me " You are probably not gonna like it. The camera style is not the better and... I don't know, it's weird." This someone almost made me lost the chance to watch one of the most funny and fixing french movies I've ever seen. Honestly? I have to agree with him that some people may not like the filmography style - which accuracies with an independent movie - ... read more

Ten minutes in and I wanted to put all characters out of their misery. By far, the most annoying film I've seen in a while. I have yet to find a film of Julie Delpy's which is not an overpretentious indie flick with quirkier-than-thou dialogue that goes on forever. I'm hardly a fan of Before Sunrise/Sunset but continuous wanna-be Linklater babble is far worse! Some many times throughout the film I... read more

Full Descriptionthrough Paris, where Marion has purchased a tiny apartment one floor up from her rowdy, eccentric parents (played with great ability by Delpy's actual parents). Just passing through after an Italian getaway, the lovebirds are unprepared for the many relationship tests soon thrown their way in the notoriously romantic city. Avoiding the metro on account of Jack's terrorism fears, the couple treks about the city by foot and cabs, getting into several vicious brawls with French cabbies, waiters, and a string of men from Marion's past. When Jack discovers how many of Marion's so called "friends" she used to be intimate with, the trip becomes overshadowed by paranoia. This suspicion would be easy to brush off if only Jack spoke the language, or if all of Marion's exes didn't insist on multiplying. Delpy, who penned, directed, and stars in the feature, has created a truly charming film. Thanks to clever writing and great chemistry, Delpy and Goldberg's onscreen relationship feels completely natural and genuine. Delpy saves her characters from being too precious by balancing their entertaining dialogue with human flaws. Though a story with this premise could easily veer off into a typical culture clash comedy, 2 DAYS IN PARIS moves past that to explore the problems of relationships at large in a lyrical way. While in the same general vein of the classic talk-heavy Richard Linklater film BEFORE SUNRISE, 2 DAYS IN PARIS has more in common with the film's somber 2004 sequel, BEFORE SUNSET (which Delpy co-wrote). That said, the film counters its thoughtful scenes with lighthearted ones, so it never becomes contrived or bogged down. Like BEFORE SUNSET, 2 DAYS BEFORE PARIS leads up to a whimsical conclusion which is beautiful in its simplicity. The film pulls off what Marion, a photographer, struggles with throughout, torn between the compulsion to capture a moment on film while desiring to be really in the moment itself.

"This movie nails how a relationship ebbs and flows. Some of the realist realism. Julie Deply I tip my imaginary hat to you. "

"2 Days in Paris wants to be a Woody Allen film so badly, but lacks the imperative depth needed for a movie of its type. The beginning is good and the ending is great, but everything in between is very messy. "

"Witty relationship drama that is a very accurate portrayal of real relationships and is also laugh out loud funny into the bargain. Julie Delpy wrote, directed, starred in and edited this little gem - bravo!"
