bjarias Two top notch actors in perfect form, in a completely enjoyable production. Watching Binoche .. bit.ly/1aJ58QR ..(50yo and still completely amazing.. in looks and talent).. and Reno, together they just make it seem so darn effortless and natural. As romantic comedies go, foreign or domestic, you'd be hard pressed to find anything better. Some might quibble a bit in regards to the ending, but it gets you to the place you were hoping to go. Yes of course you want to see them fall into each others arms in a warm embrace with lots of kisses, but that's not the way this film was set up. Those images will have to become alive in your imagination.

Thorsten-Krings The idea behind this film sounds like the stuff good comedies are made of: two very different people, man and woman are forced to share a hotel room because their flights are cancelled. The first problem with this film is that both people are fairly screwed up and are more annoying than interesting. The film then hovers uncertainly between being a comedy (unfortunately it's not very funny), a drama (not particularly interesting) and typical French pseudo-intellectual film where people sit and talk. And they talk a lot. Some scenes are mildly entertaining but about 30 minutes into the film you begin to wonder why you should bother finishing it since it's just not interesting.

LeRoyMarko Simple romantic comedy starring two of France best actors, Juliette Binoche and Jean Reno. The plot is simple: a man and woman meet at the airport while waiting for their flight. One is trying to get to Munich, the other to Acapulco. Stuck at the terminal, they continually stumble on each other. Soon enough they'll be spending the night together, but not in the way you think. Both Reno and Binoche have played in better films, but they still deliver a pretty solid performance. A great way to spend a rainy Sunday afternoon inside. Seen at home, in Toronto, on October 22nd, 2006.72/100 (**)

Kevin Dennis (ksdennis) French films are characterized by dialog and this film is no exception. The setting is clever - not really a modern adaptation of The VIP's, but on that order (and more down to earth). The situation is funny and, in the cell phone era, one to which we might all relate. (Of course, I assume not many people lose their cell phones à la Juliette Binoche.)A fan of both Binoche and Reno, I find both charming and the chemistry between them very real. Binoche's beautician is also far more interesting, and less stereotypified, than American film portrayals (Fran Drescher, Dolly Parton, Jennifer Coolidge...)Not one of the great French films by any means, but I still give this one 8/10.
