Critics Consensus

Paris Je T'aime is uneven, but there are more than enough delightful moments in this omnibus tribute to the City of Lights to tip the scale in its favor.

Dave Calhoun Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Cliff Doerksen Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Alan Morrison Empire Magazine A connoisseur's delight: two hours of short films celebrating the most romantic city in the world. Rated: 4/5 Jun 29, 2007 Full Review Farah Cheded A Good Movie To Watch The limited runtime of each vignette [...] doesn’t let any one note linger too long, meaning the anthology feels like a series of light, short courses rather than a gorge of something sickly. Oct 7, 2023 Full Review Chris Bumbray IONCINEMA.com Paris Je T'aime is a bit of a fiasco. Boasting an obviously large budget -- judging by the sharp production values and international cast -- the film does little to capture the magic of Paris, and rather comes off as a pretentious bore. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 21, 2020 Full Review Mattie Lucas The Dispatch (Lexington, NC) A wonderful film - it is a vibrant, shimmering love letter to Paris that warms the heart in ways that few films can. Rated: 3.5/4 Jun 6, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Daryl D Stories of the 10th, 1st, 9th Arrondissements top tier Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/05/24 Full Review Shioka O I like the mime's "Tour Eiffel" the most. Humorous, free and passionate. The tourist one played by Buchemi is a good satire, too. The Christopher Doyle's Chinese one is disturbing. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member These type projects are invariably a mixed bag; of ways to approach the short form by the directors; genres (though very little variance here); but mostly in quality. My favorites are the wacky vampire short, with Olga Kurylenko and Elijah Wood, and Juliette Binochet as the grieving mother who receives surcease of suffering from a cowboy on a horse tromping les rues de Paris. The first and last vignettes were both very good as well. The weakest for me, were the Steve Buscemi one and one where a man is senselessly murdered a some worthless street urchin. Nice work overall, for a mixed bag. 3.2 stars Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review dave s A love letter to the city of Paris, Paris, Je T'Aime consists of eighteen short films, each by a different director and starring different actors, that cover a variety of iterations of love and longing. The varying styles of the directors (which includes the likes of Olivier Assayas, Gus Van Sant, the Coens, Alfonso Cuaron and Tom Tykwer, among others) gives each segment a fresh and unique feel. The cast (including Juliette Binoche, Natalie Portman, Gena Rowlands, Gerard Depardieu, etc.) does a remarkable job considering the time constraints of the short films and the stories, the quality of which varies from segment to segment, are generally top notch. Of note, the continuous take is Cuaron's Parc Monceau is remarkable and Alexander Payne's 14E Arrondissement is unexpectedly heartbreaking. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Daniel W There are a few islands of entertaining arthouse cinema here, but they're surrounded by an ocean of pointless and boring vignettes. If you can stream it for free, the following episodes are worth watching: "Tuileries," the Coen Brothers' hilarious satire of tourist paranoia; the charming "Tour Eiffel," about a mime who finds love; "Quartier Latin," a thoughtful look at amicable divorce; and the clever "Parc Monceau" and "Faubourg Saint-Denis," about which little can be said without spoiling them. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/23/21 Full Review Audience Member Now that's a movie with true depth it! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
