Critic Reviews

The film is knowingly sarcastic in its self-awareness without falling back on the gawky meta-squealing of its American rom-com counterparts.

What raises it a notch above the typical slick Hollywood romances are its stars, Ludivine Sagnier and Nicolas Bedos.

With a snappy score made up of American standards and tons of Gallic spice, “Love” wins us over.

The film relies heavily on the charm of its lead performers, and both rise to the occasion.

Not exactly arthouse, but as subtitled fluff goes, we’re talking première classe.

Sagnier is appealing in her first real romantic role and there’s Gallic charm galore.

If women's pictures are truly dying (in this personal reviewer's opinion, they are not if you know where to look) it's movies like Love Is In The Air that are its executioner.

Though the actors' chemistry sets off no fireworks and the story is never truly involving, the movie does manage to avoid being outright painful.

The two leads have enough genuine sex appeal to make the film endurable.

A romantic-comedy that isn't funny or romantic.
