This movie is about dying wish and lust for dangerous living, where love always comes on the second place. In the midle of story is the battle against Pakistan terrorism in Paris. I don't like this kind of stories where nothing is new, especially when a beutiful girl gets the bullet between the eyes. I mean Travolta is really the great, but everything looks like the same old La femme Nikita, which is coming back all over again and so on and so for.

Awesome. Action packed. Blood. Guns. Car chases. These are just the main points added with a fast flowing movie, good story and first class acting for this movie cant be anything less than a 5/5. The plot is as fast moving as the car chases and the plot develops from one into another to a dramatic conclusion. Saying much more about this movie would include spoilers, so enough said. Just watch.Cool, Slick, Fast Paced, Funny, with a truck load of Killing and vase full of Coke!! Oh and a 10 year old pointing a gun in your face!!If you don't like any of that, this movie is rubbish, if you do, then its too cool for school!!In the end, sometimes, doing what is necessary, not what is morally and emotionally right, is the only way to get the job done!!

From Paris With Love (2010): Dir: Pierre Morel / Cast: Jonathan Rhys Meyers, John Travolta, Kasia Smutniak, Richard Durden, Amber Rose Revah: Amusing action comedy with an ear for dialogue. Title is a parody of the 007 action film From Russia With Love, but it also mocks the romantic images of Paris through its violence. Jonathan Rhys Meyers plays an aide to the U.S. Ambassador in France but longs to become an agent. He gets his wish when he is paired with John Travolta to stop a terrorist attack. Film starts off great until action and violence become too constant. The ending works thanks to director Pierre Morel who capitalizes on dialogue and action as a mixture. He previously directed the similar action thriller Taken. Meyers is superb as someone going from a low risk position to becoming a target. Travolta steals the film with humorous dialogue and a blunt but intelligent knack for the job. What works here is whether or not Meyers can trust Travolta and his reactions to his methods. Kasia Smutniak plays Meyers' French girlfriend who factors in. She is a key player without being reduced to a romantic prop. Richard Durden as the Ambassador is unfortunately flat in what is cliché and a weak element in the film. Other roles aren't exactly flying off the screen either leaving the leads to elevate the film higher than perhaps it deserves. The action, stunts and production are top notch despite the fact that the screenplay isn't quite as intelligent as it could be. Action fans will likely accept this film with love while others may vacation elsewhere to broader entertainment. Score: 6 ½ / 10

...whenever he is out of control and in charge of his world, it's hard not to like him. He's smug, violent loud and American in a world that despises all of that to which we embrace. I don't think snobs would enjoy this movie, as it boils down all your most ridiculous fears about terrorism, drugs, and gangs into the simplest form of targets. It's not for the intellectual, it's for venting. And if you approach it with that idea of fun, you can go along with the outrageous set up.I absolutely had fun watching this film. Pierre Morel is very capable of stunt coordination without it just being non-sensical. Everything is amp'd up but plausible. He balances it out with a warm look at Paris. And it's idiosyncratic characters. He stretches the love of its people and also the things that drive him nuts (bureaucracy).Not so when Travolta comes in like a bull and takes charge. It's a cartoon to be sure.
