McClatchy-Tribune News ServiceRoger MooreApr 16, 2013
Paris-Manhattan is an amusing little nothing of a movie built around the wit and wisdom of Woody Allen. Read full review

The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Dave McGinnApr 11, 2013
The premise of Paris-Manhattan is simple enough; unfortunately, so is everything else about writer-director Sophie Lellouche’s debut feature film. Read full review

New York PostFarran Smith NehmeApr 11, 2013
There’s a good cinephile heart beating under this fluffy story. But Lellouche, in making her homage to Allen, left out one of his essential qualities: bite. Paris-Manhattan drifts by and never leaves a single toothmark. Read full review

Total FilmTom DawsonJul 5, 2013
Sophie Lellouche’s slick debut is chock-full of Woody-com quotes and references, yet it remains an inconsequential, undernourished trifle that does sod-all with its potential. Read full review

The GuardianAndrew PulverJul 5, 2013
By itself, this would just be one of those workmanlike relationship films the French turn out by the yard; but all the Allen stuff throws its mediocrity into sharp relief. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeMay 2, 2013
Pretty, occasionally witty and not believable for a moment, Sophie Lellouche's Paris-Manhattan is suffused with fannish love for Woody Allen's films but hardly lives up to their legacy. Read full review

The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisApr 11, 2013
Were it not for the charming Patrick Bruel as a no-nonsense security expert and Alice’s unlikely suitor, this spun-sugar concoction would be well nigh unwatchable. Read full review

Village VoiceAaron HillisApr 9, 2013
Shallow, witless but pretty enough French ode to Woody Allen. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesSheri LindenMay 2, 2013
The conceit grows more strained, its Talmudic potential unrealized, while the comedy never rises above bleh. Read full review

Variety Boyd van HoeijMar 16, 2013
This update-cum-ripoff might be aiming for witty and romantic, but it’s mostly a hollow, rambling effort leavened with some stargazing. Read full review
