Christy Lemire RogerEbert.com That's a lot of stuff going on at once, all of which feels rather familiar but none of which the film ever truly gets right. Rated: 1.5/4 Nov 8, 2013 Full Review Farran Smith Nehme New York Post It's a mildly interesting thriller - Paris through the eyes of a director who doesn't know how to make its beauty menacing. Rated: 2/4 Nov 8, 2013 Full Review Rachel Saltz New York Times "Paris Countdown" is a buddy movie with a downbeat heart. Nov 7, 2013 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Amusing as several moments are, Marie's got nothing particularly memorable in store for us with Paris Countdown. Aug 29, 2019 Full Review Mike McGranaghan Aisle Seat Despite possessing some definite strengths, the film ultimately feels as though it's hewing to a well-honed formula. Rated: 2.5/4 Nov 7, 2013 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com Aims to be a slick piece of action entertainment, but there's little imagination beyond the age of the lead characters, and while the feature is mercifully simplistic, it's rarely engaging, even as a violent distraction. Rated: C Nov 7, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Sorte de pastiche maladroit d'un film de Nicolas Winding Refn par un amateur peu inspire. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Highly stylized film with great sound. Overall, a fun experience and quite a neat thriller and noir piece. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
