The laughs come fast and breezy, just as Delpy intends. full review

While it's nowhere near a perfect film, 2 Days in New York is worth seeing, not only for the comedy but also for the realism of the smaller moments. full review

Much of the alleged humor is based on French-English language gags, or cultural differences or continental mores vs. the priggishness of Americans, but it's all more irritating than funny. full review

"2 Days in Paris" is as self-assured as it is slight, a deliberate diversion whose winsome charms never run dry. full review

A manic and funny, if ultimately frustrating, sequel. full review

It's extremely funny, one of the funniest films of 2012, with a particularly winning style - far-fetched, extreme and nonstop. full review

Chatty, neurotic, maddeningly messy, often very funny, "New York" spins in a lunatic orbit of its own. full review

Finds its comedy in the familiar annoyances of urban life (a contentious neighbor, random acts of vandalism), in the conflict between parents and siblings, but also in bigger, kookier, existential quandaries. full review

The comedy works some of the time; the pathos, more so. full review

Julie Delpy has particularly impressed me over the years. full review

It's time for Delpy to leave Marion in New York for good and head back to Paris. Besides, the sausage is better there. full review

Delpy's good at keeping Marion's complaints sharp and funny, rather than wan and whiny. Even so, the movie's a bumpy ride as her good farcical instincts vie with the yen for cheap laughs. full review

About six hours of those "2 Days in New York" don't work at all. And, coming as they do at the end, they tend to deflate the charm of the trip. full review

2 Days in New York plays like 2 years in Attica. full review

The film, which is about a chaotic 48 hours in Marion's life, succumbs to the chaos it depicts, and so undermines its best intentions. It is, all in all, a likable mess. full review

The screenplay - which was written by Delpy, Landeau and Nahon - has a jittery kind of honesty about it, which Rock and Delpy sometimes push to its limits. full review

Julie Delpy is boundlessly appealing. And Chris Rock is acerbic fun. But the frenzied cross-cultural gags take the piss out of the real subject: how blood ties can turn love into a battlefield. full review

Delpy and Rock click so well together that we'd much rather hang out at home with them, instead of racing around the city with sitcommish supporting characters. full review

At least we'll always have 2 Days in Paris. full review

These two days skip by in a movie that plays like early Woody Allen, with Julie Delpy as the blonder, French-accented Keaton, this time the center of the action and very much in charge of the mess she makes around her. full review
