Mr. Crystal's style as a director is smoothe and bland.

Caryn James, New York Times
Rotten

Since the stories are none too startling, it's hard to see why these otherwise bright people should be so enthusiastic about boring themselves.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten

With its uneven tone, Forget Paris doesn't have enough comedy or heartfelt romance to eclipse its faults.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Fresh

It all works.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Rotten

This movie has such a naked desire to evoke the human condition, you want to throw a blanket over it.

Desson Thomson, Washington Post
