Sorry, this movie sucks
Don't listen to the negative reviews
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
I was in vacation in my hometown in the country so it was funny to see a movie that happens in Paris where I work today. Unfortunately, and especially because it's a romance, the Paris depicted here is terribly boring ! They hardly visit the highlight of the city of lights ! In addition, except our lovebirds, all the characters are stupid and horribly casted ! The movie isn't really funny and worse, its finale is unoriginal as it's easily guessed ! What's left so ? Well, Geraldine and her Italian lover : as the former ranks among my best favorite actress, it's always a delight to share time with her ! As it's a prime role for her, she can really express her qualities : energy, spleen and fun ! Next, she got an amazing wardrobe (that black dress !) that really spotlights her charming features ! Her Romeo is indeed Italian as I remember to have seen him on the Antonioni's excellent last feature ! But, this one is a french movie and maybe it would have more interesting for its french audience to shoot in Italia to offer us a taste of change of scenery which is badly needed here !
