This is a romantic comedy set in Paris about a family that goes there because of business, and two young people who are engaged to be married in the fall have experiences there that change their lives.

Breezy and casually profound, with a killer gimmick that keeps on giving.

"Midnight in Paris" is a bonbon to ease the craving for Allen's earlier, funnier films.
June 03, 2011
There is breezy comedy to be made of a YouTube-age writer meeting the icons and idols of a bygone, classical era, but Allen goes deeper, expanding on his time-travel device to make unexpected and unexpectedly generous observations.

I continue to be utterly taken with Midnight in Paris.

... Allen brings his fantasy to life with such affection and joy that he transports us into his dream come true as a shared fantasy.

It's fun and it's most welcome.

Midnight in Paris is a loving embrace of the city, of art and of life itself.

Mr. Allen's habitual romanticizing of the wealthy has grown stale and is especially problematic in this recession.
August 03, 2013
It's attractive and easy to slip into, but [Allen] didn't put enough thought into the design, and it soon falls apart.

Midnight in Paris is charming and clever, at times wickedly astute and hopeful.

It's charming and smart, and riddled with little joys.

Our hero has found his groove among the Lost Generation and, for us, there's some amusement to be had in sharing Gil's thrills -- it's like stepping into a Classic Comics version of A Moveable Feast.
