The Worst Movie EVER
My review of this movie is going to have to be as senseless and scattered as the movie itself.
Kate Hudson goes to Paris to help out her pregnant sister (Naomi Watts), whose husband SUDDENLY leaves her without a word, on the day of Kate's arrival.
Kate immediately falls into bed with some random guy for no apparent reason and then 5 minutes later begins an affair with a rich older man who gives her a $25,000 Hermes bag, again for no discernable reason. Somewhere in there she is being stalked/harassed/threatened with death by her sister's husband's lover's husband. K, wait, that was her sister's husband's lover's husband. No seriously, this movie still gets worse.
The Naomi Watts character attempts suicide at about 8 months of pregnancy and upon waking up from near death begins giddily talking about baby names. The entire family comes to Paris ostensibly to console her because of the attempted suicide but ends up in a restaurant discussing prices of dishes and food allergies. Nobody ever mentions her BLEEDING WRISTS.
In the final scene, Kate Hudson throws her $25,000 Crocodile Hermes bag over the Eiffel tower and it proceeds to fly through Paris on its own accord.
Being drunk while watching this movie DOES NOT HELP. This is a VERY BAD MOVIE.Read full review...
Backdrop of Paris is lovely, truely enchanting film.
I find myself watching this film over and over. Every time I feel like I'm in Paris. The apartment, the alure of art, and typically French love affairs. The intermingling of books, romance, money, and flaky people. Its a good story based on good writing, which always makes for great films. Its great for a rainy afternoon, enchanting slice of France. MR / update, I just listened to the unabriged book on cd. Wow, a completely different story, maybe I am bias, but the book was excellent, but the movie was much better. My hats off to the script writer, because the movie is a better story. Any budding script writer should read/listen to the book, then view the movie. This overlooked movie really has depth to it. Blessings, Max Rainet.

If you have lived in France for a month or more this should ring true! Fabulous cast!
I read a lot of negative reviews about ” le divorce“. I am guessing they are from people who I have not “lived“ in France. After I spent over seven months there besides being flag to be home years later when I saw this It definitely brought back memories...I can see how some people didn’t like it the translation was not great but the details from the way the windows open to saying ”mais bien sur” to everything was spot on...brought me back minus a $12,000 bag! 😘 double cheek ”bisous”Read full review...

Not your usual garden variety romantic comedy...
I agree with another reviewer that this is more a Romantic Drama than a Romantic Comedy. It's a story about a purse...nope, it's about a family heirloom painting...no a divorce...no - it's about art...or maybe about sisterhood...no, wait it's about french culture...or just a story about life's little (and big) ups and downs. Whichever story line catches your fancy, you can expect good acting and action. I thought Glenn Close was wonderful in the movie, in addition to Kate and Naomi. The husband is a bum and his family a real piece of work, but everyone gets what they deserve, in the end!Read full review...
The Art of an Entertaining Divorce
Ah, Paree!!!! Captures the spirit and ambiance of Paris as I remember it! The story was artfully done and the last a5 minutes of the tale of the divorce are absolutely first-rate! Actors are quite believeable! Read full review...

Worth Watching
I have to admit I really didn't think I'd enjoy watching this movie by myself, but I'm pleasantly surprised to say it was really a good watch!
While this isn't normally the type of movie I go for, I found myself really getting into this and at some points actually forgetting I was only watching it on my TV.
The acting is great, I enjoy the story to it, and I really liked the ending.
I'd suggest this to people who normally watch romantic comedies, but also recommend it to those who don't to give this one a shot.Read full review...
