	Author	Review
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"Unique physical comedy unlike anything else around now (...) Gordon and Abel really know what they’re doing"	POS
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"In a world where comedy has gone raunchy, we'll always have Paris — which has seldom been funnier or more charming than as seen through burlesque duo Abel and Gordon's eyes."	POS
United States	Ben Kenigsberg The New York Times	"Fiona Gordon and Dominique Abel show a grace for physical comedy (...) 'Lost in Paris' grows a bit tiresome at feature length, but it’s a winning divertissement."	POS
United States	Eric Kohn IndieWire	"[A] charming ode to Tati and Chaplin (...) Rather than reinventing the wheel, Abel and Gordon keep turning it with their own intimate touch."	POS
United States	Joe Morgenstern The Wall Street Journal	"'Lost in Paris' is nonsensical by design, a comedy of the absurd that’s always entertaining and occasionally pure."	POS
United States	Serena Donadoni Village Voice	"Riva is a bubbly delight in one of her final roles, her mischief perfectly at home in Gordon and Abel’s escapist vision of a benign Paris."	POS
United States	Chuck Bowen Slant	"The film turns romance into a democratizing game of tag that's sustained by an encouraging unpredictability (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	POS
