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.

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

Rating:  - All the funny parts are on the trailer...
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 ... Read More
Rating: - Two days you will definitely want to skip
"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 ... Read More
Rating:  - One great bilingual movie! hilarous!
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.
Rating: - Well written movie!
I thought this movie was fantastic! It's insightful, realistic, intelligent and well written! I don't understand why some reviewers reviewed it so poorly. This movie is not like the normal mainstream movies that are shown over and over again. Maybe some people wanted the "hollywood love story", which this is not; however, this is a movie about realistic love, relationships, etc.
Rating:  - Hilarious! cliches become real in this laugh out loud comedy by beautifull and brillian Delpy!
First of all, I can't believe negative reviews about this film, since it started I couldn't stop laughing! Delpy is so lovable as this kind of esquizofrenic french woman who is spending two days in paris with her boyfriend at her parents house. Won't go into details, just give it try! one of the most brilliants funny scenes I have seen in a movie is the ride with the "racist taxi driver" ... "WELCOME TO FRANCE, WELCOME TO FRANCE, WELCOME TO FRANCE!
and so on... there are many great moments in ... Read More
