Product Description

From Amazon.com

Meg Ryan emerges bloodied but unbowed from this botched comedy by Lawrence Kasdan (The Big Chill). Ryan plays a woman whose fiancé (Timothy Hutton) leaves her for a Parisian beauty. She jets over to the City of Lights to fight for her man, but an incapacitating fear of flying forces her to seek help from a fellow passenger, a French thief played by Kevin Kline, who then tutors her in the ways of getting her beau back. Kasdan seems incapable of pacing the story, let alone getting a firm grip on its comic tone and intentions. The production sputters and regroups and stalls repeatedly, forcing Ryan, particularly, to find the boundaries of her own screwball performance. --Tom Keogh

Description

Meg Ryan ("Sleepless in Seattle") and Kevin Kline ("Dave") star in this bouncy romantic comedy about life, love and larceny. When her fiancé is smitten by a beautiful Frenchwoman, Kate (Ryan) flies to Paris determined to win him back. However, nothing prepares her for Luc (Kline), a cunning sexy Frenchman with a gift for gab and a fondness for thievery. A self-proclaimed expert on affairs of the heart, Luc promises to help Kate win back her man. But one star-crossed misadventure after another sweeps them across France, ultimately changing them in ways they never dreamed possible.

Best fear of flying scene Nov 26 2003
By Peggy Vincent TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
Okay, Meg Ryan is en route to Paris to try to win back her straying fiancé, but she's got fly-a-phobia and is a wreck. Her seatmate, played by Kevin Kline, involves her in an argument (which takes up the whole flight) to keep her mind off her fears. Then he tutors her in how to get her lover back - and of course along the way the two of them end up falling in love.
Predictable from the first scene, but it doesn't detract from the joy of watching this movie one iota. Watch it with a lover.

Romace is alive and well in Paris Oct 4 2002
Format:DVD
Meg Ryan as a the faithful American fiancee to a filandering Canadian Timothy Hutton. Hutton flies to France (on business, of course), but soon falls in love with a native woman and dumps Ryan, who has already applied for Canadian citizenship out of love for him. To save her relationship with Hutton, Ryan rushes to see about things in France. On the plane she is seated next to small time French crook Kevin Kline, who plants a stolen diamond necklace on unsuspecting Ryan to avert customs officials.

There are several small roles played by actors who are popular in Europe, but not known to American audiences. The story twists and turns, but in the end leaves the viewer completely satisfied. Kline even gets to sing the original French version of Bobby Darin's "Beyond The Sea". This film is a delight!*****

French Kiss Aug 30 2002
By joule
Format:DVD
In some ways this is your typical "girl" flic it has romance, comedy and a struggle to overcome a love obstacle. Meg Ryan's performance is cute sometimes not believable and a little overboard but I find this typical of the comedic stlye. However Kevin Kline shines as an actor in the movie. In fact you can hardly tell it is him except on a few occasions when his grin comes through the character. His character, Luc, a french thief adds a great deal to the movie. He is definetly not the kind of person you would expect to see in this kind of romantic film giving this comedy a breath of fresh air from the now overdone Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks style of romantic comedy. Well perfromed characters make this movie an enjoyable afternoon on the couch.

A waste of time for me
Although I saw this movie, I did not like this anyhow. To be honest with you, I do not tolerate this kind of movie. Read more

A good chick flick, as far as chick flicks go.
I'm a little biased, because Kevin Kline can do no wrong in my eyes! Kline actually pulls off a decent French accent (albeit a Hollywood French kind of accent), and Meg Ryan is her... Read more
