Read More Most sequels seem to fall short in comparison to the original...this movie holds up. I highly recommend seeing the Spanish Apartment prior to watching this. In Spanish Apartment, you watch how several people from different countries can co-exist and even grow together. In Russian Dolls, you see how some of these characters have grown and matured, yet some did not. These two movies give a real look at relationships. Great soundtracks in both movies! If you have ever been to Paris or Barcelona, you will love these movies. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More This sequel to The Spanish Apartment picks up 5 years after Xavier left Barcelona to return to Paris. It's entertaining, but not as good as the original movie, but nice to catch up with the original characters and see what they're doing. But it's a bit long and rambles a bit too much. Still, if you can sit back and enjoy his journey, I think you will like it. If you didn't see the original, then I highly recommend seeing it before you see this one.

I agree whole-heartedly with Troy B.s' review of the movie & thoroughly enjoyed both movies! I really like Kelly Reilly as an actress but be warned, she's the only one you will understand so get those Subtitles on ENGLISH! (-; Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More this movie was extremely boring and completely terrible. The main guy did not know what role he wanted to play and the writers and director seem to start the movie thinking about a subject and by the middle of it changed their mind. the movie is disjointed. Acting was good but completely and utterly boring. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Anyone can identify with the writer's search for his identity, his purpose in life and the meaning of love... What is love?
Good stuff. Can't wait to see the prequel. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Most guys would be envious of Xavier's conquests, but I found it rather difficult to believe. The chemistry between actors was lacking and the story was only slightly plausible. Only the beauty of European architecture stood out in this tepid dramedy. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |
