Who wouldn’t want a picturesque trip to the French capital that delivers more laughs than a nitrous oxide leak near the hyena compound? In fact, I’d go as far as to promise that Lost in Paris offers the three most delightful sight gags you’ll see on screen all year.

From multi-talented Belgian/Canadian duo Dominique Abel and his partner Fiona Gordon comes a slice of light-hearted whimsy.

It has its moments where it's actually funny. The photography is good troughout the film. Some scenes are dragged for too long though and it's a strange thing in an already short movie.

Some likeable characters, particularly Fiona, but the humor is so broad, so strained, so predictable and deliberately quirky, it's hard to care much, or be amused by, about them.

Lost in Paris is nonsensical by design, a comedy of the absurd that’s always entertaining and occasionally pure.

A throwback to a kinder, gentler comic sensibility combining the surreal, the whimsical and vaudeville, Lost in Paris successfully delights as two misfits continue to find themselves beholden to the kind of destiny that only graces visitors to the city of lights.

Lost in Paris grows a bit tiresome at feature length, but it’s a winning divertissement.

Lost in Paris abounds in whimsy that, for the most part, isn't irritatingly precious—a feat that's harder to pull off than it appears.

Fiona Gordon and Dominique Abel’s signature style blends screwball and romantic comedy with playful fantasy, but Lost in Paris lacks the magical elements of their previous features.

This movie was shorter than an hour and a half, but was so tedious I thought it would never end. I maybe smiled two or three times. Stay away from this movie. The gags are not funny. And I love Paris and the French.
