Critics Consensus: Lost in Paris is whimsical to a fault, but its fanciful light-heartedness earns the audience's indulgence with charming performances and an infectious absurdity.

It's as infuriating as it is inventive, as it Just... Never... Stops. It is Paris Through the Looking Glass.
An exercise in whimsicality that might leave Wes Anderson fatigued.
Lost in Paris is occasionally self-indulgent, although one could argue that's part of its charm.
If you can forget logic ... and just go along for the ride, its absurdity can be endearing.
Cruel comic mishaps may be this movie's raison d'être, but they are softened at every turn by the gentle humanity of the city's inhabitants, and by the unspoken sense that everything will turn out fine in the end.
"Lost in Paris" grows a bit tiresome at feature length, but it's a winning divertissement.
This film follows in the great tradition of quirky European comedies such as Jean-Pierre Jeunet's 'Amélie' but also is strongly influenced by 'fish-out-of-water' comedies with the most obvious being 'Lost In Translation'.
For those who enjoy this particular brand of comedy, Lost in Paris is an outstanding, lighthearted update of the genre.
A surreal, heart-warming, beautifully executed Tati-esque physical comedy filled with visual gags and with sparse dialogue
You can pick out the influences, but the set pieces are so charming, particularly a scene where a rogue bass throb hiccups through a restaurant and gets the stars both dancing together and falling in love, that you'll willingly submit.
For those who seek it out - and its release seems to be very limited - it should provide a welcome antidote to the more strident forms of humour that pass for screen comedy today.
I found myself equally charmed and confounded by its seemingly endless eccentricities.
