Fresh
Manages to surprise and absorb the viewer in ways that your typical 'meet cute' romance never would.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Overview
At Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, a beautician on her way to a new job in Mexico accidentally meets a cook who is on his way back from America. Labor strikes, bad weather, and pure luck cause the two of them to share a room overnight at the airport Hilton hotel. Will their initial mutual indifference and downright hostility turn into a one night stand or perhaps something more?

All the usual meet-cute tropes are trotted out -- room service hassles, bed-sharing dilemmas -- but Reno and Binoche make a fine pair and the Parisian setting somehow makes it all seem fresher.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Rotten
The script is definitely mediocrity mixed with complication.
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
Rotten
A movie so thin it borders on nonexistence.
Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald
Rotten
A piffle of a romantic comedy that wastes its stars.
Robert Denerstein, Denver Rocky Mountain News
