Product Description: Adam Goldberg delivers "an uproarious study in transatlantic culture panic" (MTV) as Jack an anxious hypochondriac-prone New Yorker vacationing throughout Europe with his breezy free-spirited Parisian girlfriend Marion (Delpy). But when they make a two-day stop in Marion's hometown the couple's romantic trip takes a turn as Jack is exposed to Marion's sexually perverse and emotionally unstable family her coarse temperament with cab drivers and her ex-lovers... her many ex-lovers. Culture-shocked and ego-bruised Jack finds himself hoping that their relationship can survive as their love is revealed in surprising ways.System Requirements:Running Time: 100 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/ROMANTIC COMEDY Rating: R UPC: 024543486688 Manufacturer No: 2248668
Amazon.com: Julie Delpy, having spent the entirety of Richard Linklater's Before Sunrise and Before Sunset walking around European cities and talking, decides to take hold of the reins herself in Two Days in Paris. For this somewhat similar gabfest, Delpy writes, directs, and casts herself as one half of a neurotically fun couple, who stop over to visit her parents for a couple of days in (duh) Paris. Adam Goldberg brings his shaggy worrywart persona as Delpy's better half--and why shouldn't he worry? Her parents seem happy to play pranks on him, and Delpy's ex-boyfriends materialize in every arrondissement. Despite their differences in style, these two have enjoyable chemistry together, and Goldberg is gifted with razor-sharp timing. Good to see Delpy, who has often been tapped for ethereal types, playing a feistier character than usual. It doesn't hurt anything at all that they are walking and talking through Paris, a city with an inexhaustible number of attractive angles. At some point you may begin to realize that the movie doesn't seem to be about very much, and without Linklater's ingenious fixed-time structure, there's little urgency to the ongoing conversation. If you haven't seen the Linklater films, absolutely check those out first, and consider this a photogenic side dish. --Robert Horton

This is a lovely movie, and I utterly enjoyed watching it - twice; however I could see how it might not suit everyone's taste.
Firstly, I think having a bi-cultural background (while not a prerequisite) definitely helps appreciate its humor and charm. Granted, both protagonists are archetypes to some degree (he the neurotic, hypocondriac New Yorker; she the bohemian, hot-tempered Frenchwoman); and there are also some heavy-handed moments (for example the rather cliche dinner with the French ...

Free love is a rather glum affair in Julie Delpy's directorial debut. Fans of the angelic Ms. Delpy, or of Paris, will have to check this out, naturellement, but it is best to keep your expectations rather low. Delpy demonstrates a sure hand with framing shots, and really, it's not possible to make Paris look unappealing, but Delpy and Adam Goldberg as the respective halves of an estranged couple sure give it the old college try, with more or less constant bickering marring the pretty views. Enroute ... Read More

I looked so forward to seeing this because of the trailer. Little did I know I'd already seen the funny parts because of it! This movie tries way too hard to succeed. Instead-it fails miserably. Goldberg's character was extremely whiny, a hypocondriac, depressing and just mean! Actually, I liked neither character. The humor fell short most of the film. I can appreciate that Paris is an openminded city, but I fail to see how all the sex talk, 'dirty' words and innuendo would actually happen like it did in ... Read More

"2 Days in Paris" starts off OK but the relentlessly obnoxious characters - especially filmaker and star Julie Delpy - quickly become tiresome and irritating. Much of the dialogue and many of the situations appears to be unscripted and go absolutely nowhere - case in point the scene on the Metro. Only Adam Goldberg comes out of this with any distinction. Delpy has almost succeeded in doing the one thing that you might have thought impossible - making Paris look unappealing. These are definitly two days you ... Read More

this movie is very well written, the reason I think the reviews are so bad on this site is that its bilingual. Even if there are subtitles (both ways) the humor of both the english and french speaking characters don't match up. It works,just not as well. So if your open to subtitles or bilingual I recomend this! Very funny, well acted and well written! hilarious, mon cher bouffe chie dort! haha.
