Puerto Ricans in Paris Reviews

No harm, no foul. It didn't go in the direction I thought it would, it wasn't as funny as I wanted it to be. But I'm not angry about it.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 17, 2020

There were parts I actually did laugh at. But Garcia is a terrible actor, and there's no way around that...

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 17, 2020

While the detective duo's plans to cruise on charm may backfire at times, the same can't be said for the film which, given the room to breathe, is quite the pleasant diversion.

| Nov 13, 2018

Lacks the comedy it craves.

| Original Score: C- | Feb 8, 2017

Culture-clash buddy comedy has some crude humor, gun use.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 19, 2016

There are no laughs, the plot is a bore, and visiting Paris is just an excuse to wheel out postcard backdrops and attractive women. And yet Guzman and Garcia are good together.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Jun 29, 2016

At least the title accurately describes the culture-clash shenanigans in this lackluster low-budget comedy.

| Jun 17, 2016

The grand takeaway from Puerto Ricans in Paris, which delivers what you'd expect and not much else, is that someone ought to finally give Luis Guzmn the leading role of a lifetime.

| Original Score: C- | Jun 16, 2016

Why in the world do the filmmakers go to the trouble of casting Rosario Dawson and Rosie Perez as the detectives' significant others and then leave them in the States away from all the hijinks?

| Jun 13, 2016

The entire film feels like it could have been made for 온라인카지노추천 back in the '80s.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 10, 2016

This by-the-numbers buddy cop film offers little in the way of laughs or suspense, proving to be nothing more than a missed opportunity for its cast and crew to present a worthy addition to the genre.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Jun 10, 2016

Yes, it's predictable. Of course, it follows a formula. But damn if this isn't Guzman's show.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 10, 2016

There's the germ of a very good action-comedy franchise in Puerto Ricans in Paris...A tighter script, a more urgent mystery and a bit more connection between the stars would have come in handy.

| Original Score: 3 of 5 | Jun 10, 2016

It's charming. It's funny.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 10, 2016

Luis Guzman is an instantly recognizable character actor who deserves his shot at being the face of a film. It's just unfortunate that the film turns out to be the lethargic and rarely funny fish-out-of-American-water comedy Puerto Ricans in Paris.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 10, 2016

It's difficult to see how the film itself could be any less substantial without evaporating on screen.

| Jun 10, 2016

A formulaic fish-out-of-water buddy caper given an amusing boost with a casual scrunch of Guzmn's pug-nosed mug.

| Jun 9, 2016

Guzman and Garcia (reunited from HBO's "How to Make It in America") are a joy to watch, and deliver their lines with just enough nuance to make them truly endearing; sometimes it works, others not so much.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 9, 2016

Mr. Guzmn and Mr. Garcia have an unforced chemistry. But the effective jokes land too rarely. You'll be ready to leave when the trip is over.

| Jun 9, 2016

Despite its baseline-appealing leads, "Puerto Ricans in Paris" is too low-key to be a memorable trip.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 9, 2016
