I went into this film knowing that it is a collection of short films. Not just short films, but really short films, we are talking about 18 films in 120 minutes, so when you discount opening and closing credits we at about 5 minutes a story.The part I didn't know is that it has multiple directors, and good ones. Gus Van Sant, Joel Coen, Ethan Coen, Wes Craven, and a number of other directors come together to express a small love story based in Paris. The thing about it is you get a feeling like you are at a short film festival with a central theme of romance in Paris. the problem is that some of the stories are really bad... some are really bad at festivals also... but some are incomplete... which isn't good.
Since I have to judge this festival of a film as a whole then it was very very average, where else can I go? A couple might warrant an 8 or 9 [namely the Natalie Portman one and the mail lady on vacation] a couple get a 2 or 3 [namely the mime one and the Maggie Gyllenhaal one]. So it all evens out. Not really worth your time.
