I'm not really a fan of Allen's style, but the fantasy parts in this were quite delightful, although they could've been longer and deeper. I'd give the fantasy parts a 75, and the contemporary parts a 45.

Fun enough, and the easy little in jokes are nice, but ultimately really lightweight.

balanced surprisingly well between charm and cheese for the first half, although it eventually weighed over to the latter. the final scene still made me smile though.

Allen's directing is almost as beautiful as the city the movie is set in. The actors playing the past celebrities were a bit underwhelming, except Brody of course.

Woody lays it on rather thick, but it's still entertaining.

I smiled through this entire film, and my wife wants to learn more about the Lost Generation in Paris. What more could you ask for?

Wilson is the perfect Allen protagonist--he can pull off the uncertain, doubting, self-abasing shtick while at the same time remaining likable, the latter a quality that Allen himself seems to have less and less of as the years go by. The wondrous scenes of 1920s Paris are the real stars of the film, with Stoll's Hemingway and Cotillard's Adriana stealing the show. The encouragement to make something of life in the present is a bit of a trifle, but the film's sweetness makes it go down easily.

Story is meh - I don't understand how those people could be planning on getting married. Parents are annoying Enjoyed the movie a lot for the 1920s scenes where W.Allen created some brilliant dialog. This made up for the overall shallowness of the plot, which btw another actor than Wilson might have make interesting. Hemingway, Fitzgerald and Dali are very entertaining. Brody great as dali.

Consistently pleasant, and the many references to major artists and filmmakers who called Paris their home in the 20's are undeniably appealing without getting tediously redundant. Gil giving Bunuel the idea for "The Exterminating Angel" was a highlight. The one gripe one can have is that the film is perhaps a tad bit too light in its' examination of the main themes and the plot department in general. For a headier (and superior) film about art and the psyche or artists, see "Certified Copy."

I didn't think Woody still had it in him, but I'm happy I was wrong. It's truly unexpected to get an innocently optimistic and uplifting story after a series of films fixated over cynical randomness of it all. This film will make you smile, it can also make you shed a sentimental tear. One could argue that film is too simplistic, too predictable, or that Woody is too harsh making these famous caricatures, but it just hit correct note with me.

It's refreshing to see a film with a plot built around a pillar of creativity, especially when it's designed to help us learn to appreciate the world (and era) in which we live.

It's fun and all, but considering the places it goes and all the titanic personalities on display I found it oddly flat and forgettable. At least there are plenty of funny moments, and the warm cinematography is nice.

Full of fantastic scenery, Midnight in Paris pays respects to the golden age. Paris is a particularly gorgeous city, no matter what the time or the place, but having the 20s era come to life was brilliant. Mixing the modern world with a world that seemed so simple adds a complexity to a film that debates whether or not the world should live in the past. As a result of having a love for history, main character Gil is able to rework his life so it fits what he enjoys the most.

Owen Wilson IS Woody Allen. And a right and a wrong adds up to annoying.

If this were a high school literature class final essay I would give it an A+, but as a film it's a masturbatory namedropping extravangaza with lazy original characters and caricatured historical characters. But otherwise, beautiful party scenes and a few chuckles.

Allen's hyper-romantic view of Paris makes for a very charming experience, in what is perhaps his prettiest film in a long time. His photography really is exceptional here. Wilson is excellent, and although "Midnight in Paris" may lack the character depth of an "Annie Hall" or "Manhattan", Wilson makes the most of the tight and effective screenplay. The support cast are perhaps this movies highlight, with no end of honerable mentions and the fantasy element was a nice twist. Recommended.

A Really Really Delicious Experience!

What a difference it makes when you get no information about a movie before walking into it. I only knew 'Midnight in Paris' starred Owen Wilson and was directed by Woody Allen. I thought that he'd have to face that he wasn't actually travelling back in time...but he was. It wouldn't have taken something as absurd as time travel to realize that he was using his nostalgia as a reason to get away from the present. Still, the times when he did go back were very fun, even with the silly revelations.

muy buen guion, original. Excesiva representacion de owen wilson en un papel clasico de woody allen (proyeccion del director)

A bit slow, but interesting.

good

Probably the best Woody Allen movie since Match Point and a fantastic movie overall. I haven't quite seen anything like it before.
