Delightful and hilarious

This movie is witty and subtle. The humor is a little crass, but in a good way. Julie Delpy is a very talented actor and director.

Best I've seen in a long time
Added 8/20/2009
A pair of mismatched lovers spend two days in Paris growing increasingly leery of each other as they discover hidden secrets and personality quirks. Adam Goldberg plays the American of the pair in a somewhat cliched American in Paris role, acting befuddled by French inscrutability. The subtitles are very amusing as we see what insults the French are flinging. Julie Delpy has the best role, and, not surprisingly, she wrote the script. A lot of this rings true, and it's way above average adult entertainment. Watch this!

A comedic play in two languages. French and English, European and American attitudes, pop history and modernism, neuroses and silliness combine marvelously in this hilarious "small" movie. A jewel in the rough streets of Paris.

Run away now!

I rented Two Days in Paris because I thought it looked like a good chick flick for my wife. What a mistake! We didn't even make it past the first half hour. If you are amused by the self absorbed whining of neurotic, pseudo intellectual New Yorkers, then you might actually enjoy this movie. Otherwise run away now. The French characters in this movie reinforce every negative stereotype ever created. And the lead American character puts the ugly in Ugly American. This flick is strictly Woody Allen lite. If there were a negative star rating I would have used it.

The Bottom Line:
2 Days in Paris has some amusing moments and moves briskly through its brief running length; it's certainly no great film and the narration violates the "show don't tell" rule during numerous crucial scenes, but you could do worse romantic-comedy wise.
