Their week in Venice didn't work out as planned--the food didn't agree with Jack and when he was well enough to go out, he was so focused on capturing the trip with his digital camera that he forgot to experience it. They have higher hopes for their last 2 days in Paris. But the combination of Marion's offbeat and overbearing non-English speaking parents and flirtatious ex-boyfriend, with Jack's continuing photography obsession an conviction that French condoms are too small, don't make for an auspicious beginning....(Samuel Goldwyn)… Expand

Critic Reviews

Stephen Holden

Audacious as it is, the movie is also a little scary. Read full review

Tasha Robinson

For all the verbal jokery, it's more tragedy than farce. Read full review

Peter Rainer

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 full review

Richard Schickel

This anti romantic and anti-comic -- it's not as funny as Delpy seems to think it is -- movie may appeal to the dark side of your immune system. Read full review

Owen Gleiberman

Delpy wrote and directed this study of a relationship heading (it would seem) for the rocks. She stages it with a funny and diverting improv-y flow. Read full review

Claudia Puig

Delpy is clearly a gifted writer, especially of comic dialogue. But she and Goldberg don't quite work as an engaging pair. Read full review

Anthony Lane

Anyone hoping that 2 Days in Paris will revisit such peppy romance (“Annie Hall”), however, will be frustrated. There is an extra rawness here, a determination to confront and annoy. Read full review

Loved every minute. Laugh-out-loud funny in many spots, well written, well acted, with a lot of truth to it. Bravo to Julie Delpy for a job well done on all counts! I never cared for Adam Goldberg before but I loved him in this.

A fresh view of men's fear, and of an entire culture's fear.

Quirky, real and funny. Although it sometimes verges on being a little too out there the main story feels like a truthful representation of the highs and lows of two unique people in a relationship, whilst being completely hilarious.

Although it sometimes verges on being a little too out there the main story feels like a truthful representation of the highs and lows of two unique people in a relationship, whilst being completely hilarious. Julie Delpy and Adam Goldberg clearly have chemistry (they were together in real life before the film), taking the film from good to great, It'll be interesting to see how 2 days in New York turns out without Goldberg and Paris as a character of its own… Expand

I found this movie thoroughly enjoyable. The audience in the theatre laughed out loud 8 or 9 times indicating I wasn't alone in my enjoyment. The Paris street scenes were set in charming off the beaten path locales. The dialogue, while maybe not profound,was hip adult and wide ranging.

Thanks to Julie Delpy's flimsy singing voice, and even flimsier guitar-playing; the world has "Once", which to me, is "Before Sunset"(or "...Sunrise") with music. Marion(Delpy) doesn't sing in "2 Days in Paris", but she walks and talks like the anti-Celene, and her tattooed, Thanks to Julie Delpy's flimsy singing voice, and even flimsier guitar-playing; the world has "Once", which to me, is "Before Sunset"(or "...Sunrise") with music. Marion(Delpy) doesn't sing in "2 Days in Paris", but she walks and talks like the anti-Celene, and her tattooed, hirsute boyfriend Jack(Adam Goldberg) is the anti-Jesse(Ethan Hawke), a misanthrope who would probably role his eyes if Marion wrote him a waltz. What "Before Sunset" and its evil doppleganger have in common is Delpy, who on her maiden directing venture, set out to demolish the romanticized notions that domestic filmmakers have about American men and their, ooh-la-la, French girlfriends. "2 Days in Paris" plays like a commentary on the Richard Linklater trilogy(if you count Jesse and Celine's cameo in "Waking Life") from an insider's point-of-view(after all, Delpy was born in France). "Before Sunset" is about idealized love; untested love, because Jesse only thinks he knows her; whereas in "2 Days in Paris", Jack only thought he knew his girlfriend. Real love is having to deal with your lover's baggage. In the same amount of time it took for Jesse to fall in love with Celine(two days and a night), Jack falls a little out of love with Marion; as each notch on his girlfriend's bedpost he meets in the flesh, renders him more and more impotent, when Paris slowly reveals itself to be the city of promiscuous sex, not the city of romance.… Expand

Boring dialogue from two characters who inspired indifference.

A complete vanity project. Poorly written, acted and filmed. I felt like I was watching a film on a bi-polar personality. The bit at the beginning when Adam Goldberg plays the trick on the Bush/Cheney supporters was funny.
