Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Tacticalin An absolute waste of money

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Ersbel Oraph The usual who cares movie fare. The French girlfriend is Polish. The Paris apartments are the size of a Texan Ranch or some luxury Manhattan loft, even for a small fry CIA agent. The French border police in a post 9/11 world is some sort of small village deputy sheriff waiting to close the shop down and get home. But I get the production team needed some good camera guys to make an old, fat and slow Travolta move like a much younger, slimmer and more fit Cruise.

Crystal This movie is surprisingly good. Surprising, as I love both actors but I hadn't expected them to work well together. When I picked up this DVD I was in two minds because of that. I could not see Rhys Meyers and Travolta work out, but damn, do these two have something going! Some people say "nothing new, it's all been done before." So what? Are you looking for good action, great actors or movie-literature? I really love how both actors bring their respective characters to live. And Travolta, what can I say... Adored him when I was a teenage girlie, seeing him in this action-packed role I still get star-eyed. Yep, I'm a woman, I love action, and hunky men with a serious dose of self-confidence. Okay, it borders on arrogance, but it's a movie, so that's perfectly okay. And Jonathan Rhys Meyers... If I was still a teenage girl, I'd put up posters of him all over my bedroom, lol. Apart from the actor-adoration, this movie is just great. Straightforward action, non-stop. No dips, fast-paced, just the way I like it. If you like that sort of thing as well, go watch this movie NOW!

Yipikaye Coming into this movie I didn't expect much. But once I decided to give it a watch...I loved it!!! Only because the film didn't make past $100 million dollars on Box Office, dosen't mean it's going to be bad. I am surprised this film only made $52 million, although that is still good but it should have done better. This film fits perfectly well with other Travolta action flicks: Broken Arrow, Face/Off, Swordwish and even The Punisher. Very good film, in fact I would consider this to be one of my favourite films in his career. The action is incredible, plus you get Travolta's great funny, comedic style acting. Ditto the film! I was blown away, by this movie.

Python Hyena From Paris With Love (2010): Dir: Pierre Morel / Cast: Jonathan Rhys Meyers, John Travolta, Kasia Smutniak, Richard Durden, Amber Rose Revah: Amusing action comedy with an ear for dialogue. Title is a parody of the 007 action film From Russia With Love, but it also mocks the romantic images of Paris through its violence. Jonathan Rhys Meyers plays an aide to the U.S. Ambassador in France but longs to become an agent. He gets his wish when he is paired with John Travolta to stop a terrorist attack. Film starts off great until action and violence become too constant. The ending works thanks to director Pierre Morel who capitalizes on dialogue and action as a mixture. He previously directed the similar action thriller Taken. Meyers is superb as someone going from a low risk position to becoming a target. Travolta steals the film with humorous dialogue and a blunt but intelligent knack for the job. What works here is whether or not Meyers can trust Travolta and his reactions to his methods. Kasia Smutniak plays Meyers' French girlfriend who factors in. She is a key player without being reduced to a romantic prop. Richard Durden as the Ambassador is unfortunately flat in what is cliché and a weak element in the film. Other roles aren't exactly flying off the screen either leaving the leads to elevate the film higher than perhaps it deserves. The action, stunts and production are top notch despite the fact that the screenplay isn't quite as intelligent as it could be. Action fans will likely accept this film with love while others may vacation elsewhere to broader entertainment. Score: 6 ½ / 10
