Love Is in the Air - Movie Reviews (2024)

It's not so much that Love is in the Air is a terrible film, it's just terribly familiar and has the audacity to be every bit as predictable as you can surmise it will be from its opening frames.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 29, 2019

Caught as it is between mocking romance clichés and investing in them, the film is too up in the air to succeed on either front, as love story or sendup.

There's a charm to this title, in spite of the fact it's an immensely cliched, predictable romance flick that is heavily flawed to say the least.

With its cheesy tourist's-eye view of Paris, this chirpily predictable morsel of brie is out to seduce a non-Franco market - and it should do so thanks to the charm of its edibly attractive leads.

[A] formulaic romantic comedy.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 14, 2014

It's all put across with gusto, but also a fair bit of slightly wince-making cliche, stereotyping and broad comedy. Sagnier deservesa classier vehicle than this.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 13, 2014

A delectable piece of French Valentine's Day fluff with charming turns from Ludivine Sagnier and Nicolas Bedos.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 13, 2014

Love is in the Air is a likeable and uplifting romantic comedy with charming and convincing performances at its heart, but the central story is somewhat predictable and rather implausible.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 12, 2014

It's hardly Working Title-slick, but Sagnier is appealing in her first real romantic role and there's Gallic charm galore.

A slick, fluffy French confection that slides down as easily as an extra helping of tarte tatin accompanied by a dollop of creme chantilly.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 11, 2014

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

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 11, 2014

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

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 10, 2014

A cinematic approximation of lives less ordinary -- it has vivacity and enough authenticity to make us believe its sweet fabrications.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Feb 9, 2014

Leave Love Is In The Air for the in-flight time-killing moments when you just want to watch something easy and breezy.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | Feb 8, 2014

Feels as if it could have come straight out of a Hollywood studio, rather than the land of wine, cheese and romance.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 6, 2014

By the time the end credits start to roll, you're comfortably satisfied, but never full...

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 3, 2014

For the most part, Julie and Antoine's six-hour trip feels as tedious as if it had been rerouted and taken days instead.

Full Review | Jan 30, 2014

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

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 30, 2014

A sugared ending doesn't dissolve the rest of the effort, which is appealing enough to remain patient with, even when it mistakes sabotage for sincerity.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Jan 30, 2014

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