09/01/07
The film is too wrapped up in some rather uninteresting bits of cleverness to bother making you believe in or care about the characters.
05/04/07
Structurally, it is mostly windup with very little delivery.
08/15/07
Top CriticDans Paris not only loses its charm but is devastatingly disappointing.
08/08/07
Dans Paris has a lot of whining about women, interrupted with impulsive trysts and bouts of dancing.
08/31/07
Moody, mannered and supremely irritating.
09/07/07
Top CriticThe film becomes overcrowded with its irreverent touches and eccentric interludes, which increasingly feel strained and awkward.

Clearly Honoré is talented, but only towards the end does the tale come together with conviction.
05/04/07
When the depressed Paul jumps from the bridge into the Seine, I was hoping he'd not swim ashore. There is not a character here that one could care about.
08/01/07
Almost overwhelmingly dark and downbeat, which nearly makes the whole thing unwatchable.
09/27/07
The situation is less interesting than Honoré's eclectic style...
08/31/07
Top CriticThis is a film for hardcore film fans and Francophiles. Everyone else may find little to sustain them beyond the pastiche and shots of Paris.
08/08/07
Like a 90-minute toothache-twinge.
05/04/07
If an admirable attempt at the iconoclastic, Dans Paris is too much film school for an afternoon. Lacks even the modest structure and resolution that most audiences will demand.
09/11/07
If watching mopey naked French people is your idea of a date night, this is your movie.
09/28/07
[Romain] Duris is well and fine, and [Dans Paris] would do well to stick with him, but [Christophe] Honoré seems so wary of the pitfalls of the psychological drama that he has declined to make one at all.
06/25/07
Empty and narcissistic New Wave homage from the unashamedly pretentious Christophe Honoré .
05/04/07
The setting might be Paris, but the emotional heart is scattered in this highly pretentious muddle of relationships, timeframes and essay on sadness,"
