All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

I'm Australian. I dated a French girl for 3 years. This movie is such an accurate representation of our relationship. Her exes or "friends" were always in the picture. The text messages are claimed to be "not that bad". "Messaging is not cheating" apparently. It gets to a stage where every single guy she knows, you automatically assume that she slept with him. And it's right 90% of the time. Just like Jack, I went through the situation of realizing that my girlfriend is a slut. So many lines in this film are direct quotes of hers. So many situations are exactly the same. Meeting the parents, "oh insults already". Insults in French were non-stop from her family. As I learnt French and could understand more and more I couldn't be around her family at all. Every issue raised about her family or her meeting up with "friends" (exes) was met with anger. All blame was put on me of course. In the end I concluded that despite what she says, she does not believe in monogamous relationships. It's safe to say that I'm not a fan of the French. I find them immoral.

What had the potential of being a great film with lots of opportunity of being another "The Out of Towners" with Jack Lemon and Sandy Dennis turned out to be a drawn out and tedious film of self indulgence by the director and author, Julie Delpy. The very few laughs or humorous moments were few and far between and the characters were extremely shallow and pathetic. This was watched with a friend who had the same impressions and we both found it to be typical of many French films without much substance and little to say. It was also fairly crude and crass for the sake of just making an impact and added little to whatever points were trying to be made. This was one long, tedious and drawn out film that had little to offer the viewer in terms of comedy and not much to redeem itself in its ending.

The more movies I watch starring Julie Delpy, the more I become a totally devoted fan. I simply love this super talented french actor, director script writer etc. In this movie she is much more than just the head actor, and she shows that she has Monty Python quality although the theme is rather serious. Watch it, please...The wonderful thing is that I can still see true love Celine from sunrise/sunset in her, in these rather desperate possibly more (European) realistic movie. She shows in an authentich way the sometimes HUGE difference between Amerixan and European people and their way of living out their relationships. Big scope to include her wonderful french parents in this movie. Her father is hilarious. They are VERY very European and French, super lovely, and if you don't like them you may simply just happen to have the BIG misfortune to be born in USA. I am sorry for you. Watching the movie will change everything for you in the right direction. Please do. And please go to Europe on your next trip.

A very good, intellectually and romantically stimulating and wonderful film directed and written by Julie Delpy, who also plays the main character, Marion, to Adam Goldberg's Jack; the two are a couple who spend two days in Marion's hometown Paris, before heading to their home in New York. While there, Jack finds himself strangely surrounded by Marion's exes, a language he doesn't understand and several dramatic and very comedic relationships. Marion evolves and revolves throughout the film. All in all, very comedic, very human (i.e. non-Hollywoodesque) and sympathetic. Straightforward acting, a beautiful script and many laughs makes this a winner.
