The lovely Audrey Tautou and sad-eyed Gad Elmaleh are perfectly cast as a gold digger and the poor sap who loves her, but the real star of Pierre Salvadori's larky, Lubitsch-esque farce is France's impossibly chic Cote d'Azure.
By Ken Fox FULL REVIEW

Tautou is a delight, as always, using her bubbly personality to comic advantage. And Elmaleh makes for a sort of poor man's Buster Keaton, perpetually stressed but refusing to surrender, no matter how much damage he sustains to himself or his wallet.
By Desson Thomson FULL REVIEW

Priceless is a supremely satisfying confection – a French romantic comedy of the sort that ends with you standing outside the theatre with a dopey grin on your face.
By Marc Savlov FULL REVIEW

The fetching comedy Priceless”(“Hors de Prix”) weighs about as much as its star, Audrey Tautou, but like Tautou’s pleasingly craven heroine it knows exactly what it’s doing.
By Michael Phillips FULL REVIEW
70
The outcome is never much in doubt, but Salvadori artfully choreographs the endless table turning, and the Moroccan-born Elmaleh capitalizes on his striking resemblance to Buster Keaton with a similarly comic composure.
By J.R. Jones FULL REVIEW

Priceless is a bauble - an art-house diamond made of paste that somehow still gives you good glimmer for the money.
By Ty Burr FULL REVIEW
50
Priceless provides lightweight, predictable entertainment that will make you yearn for the Tatou of yesteryear.
By V.A. Musetto FULL REVIEW
