Leave your thoughts about An American Werewolf in Paris.
| Film Journal InternationalBob SatuloffLacks the style, wit and suspense that marked Waller's debut feature, Mute Witness. |
| VarietyDerek ElleyAn enjoyably trashy blend of impressive special effects, low-key refs to Landis's movie, and sudden moments of horror breaking the jokey tone. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Liam LaceyGiven Waller's experience and budget, one might expect he could upgrade the B-movie acting and stock situations. He doesn't. The pay-off comes not in the story or acting, but the camera play and movement. |
| USA TodayAndy SeilerPlenty of gore-slinging, wisecracking fun to be had, and yes, the repulsively convincing werewolf transformations and attacks still pack a breath-stopping wallop. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleDelpy and Scott are able to put it over. She's French and deep and mysterious. He's a fresh-faced American, an open book. Liking them makes it possible to (kinda) like this otherwise routine horror movie. |
| USA TodayMike ClarkThe computer animation of the monsters here is a herky-jerky cartoon blur that is anything but scary. |
| TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghForget about social significance, depth of character and complex thematic underpinnings, and repeat after me: "It's only a werewolf movie." |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.Much too lame to be considered a sequel to "An American Werewolf in London." |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliDelpy's injection of class into an otherwise classless production raises the specter of what this film could have been with a better script and a better cast surrounding her. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanUgly Americans in Paris have run-ins with the native werewolf culture in this horror-for-laughs story, in which the characters' stupidity and the deadpan acting are out of sync--instead of being campy or clever, the plot and performances are just unconvincing. |
