	Author	Review
United States	Manohla Dargis The New York Times	"A playful, liberatory style (...) Like Mr. Honoré, these two exceptional performers [Duris and Garrel] risk the absurd, beautifully."	POS
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"Like a 90-minute toothache-twinge (...) Fantastically annoying (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader	"The situation is less interesting than Honoré's eclectic style (...) and such incidental pleasures as a cameo from Marie-France Pisier as the mother"	NEU
United Kingdom	David Parkinson Empire	"Sensitive poignant portrait of the effects of depression and loneliness (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"[It] lacks the substance to justify its technical playfulness (...) There are some fun moments amid the general tedium"	NEU
United Kingdom	Wally Hammond Time Out	"[Honoré plays] thoughtful cinematic games with the personas of his two lead actors (...) A memorable montage of cinéaste location quotes and movie hommages (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Noel Murray AV Club	"'Dans Paris' is remarkable for being more about familial bonds than French cinema tends to be."	POS
