París a toda costa

Paris or Perish doesn't deserve a well rounded, comprehensive, substantive review because it is as shallow as glitter. The entire 'films' premise is supposed to be an uplifting, quirky, cool, comedic presentation of the usual themes from the usual banal trite: Rags to riches, love, sex, friendship, glamour and a touch of heart warming soap. It's about as fulfilling as a music video-except it misses its mark.

Bad movie,terrible plot, sad gags. Absolutely not to Watch to don't lose time. Maybe the fault was the italian audio?

Watched this movie only by chance and I must say: Yes I liked it very much ! It's a lightweight, heart warming comedy flick with much of nice references to the cultural differences in nowadays Europe. Differences, that make life interesting as well challenging. Nowadays Europe ? Yes...however this film is set in France, its story is universal and would work in several countries – let's say in Germany with it's big Turkish/Muslim community (but in Germany film makers don't have such open & light minds and warm hearts to elaborate a culture clash comedy like this ;-) So I liked the film very much - the main character is established like a modish bitch but when we (the audience) start following her journey to Morocco and to her emotional roots, we also start to empathize. Its a light movie for a nice evening. A story well told, played by good actors and set in beautiful pictures.

I excepted much more. I don't understand why she puts her parents aside. I don't know what to say.
