Meg Ryan and Kevin Kline star in this bouncy romantic comedy about life, love and larceny. When her fianc is smitten by a beautiful French woman, Kate (Ryan) flies to Paris determined to win him back. However, nothing prepares her for Luc (Kline), a cunning, sexy Frenchman with a gift for gab and a fondness for thievery. A self-proclaimed expert on affairs of the heart, Luc promises to help Kate win back her man. But one star-crossed misadventure after another sweeps them across France, ultimately changing them in ways they never dreamed possible.
Editor's Note
A woman with a phobia about flying gets caught up with a shady French smuggler while flying to Paris to retrieve her wayward fiance. Director Lawrence Kasdan's first stab at romantic comedy.
Plot Summary
When Kate's fianc calls from Paris to tell her he's in love with another woman, Kate determines to do anything to get him back. She even overcomes her fear of flying so she can chase him down in the romantic city of lights. Then, while airborne, the panicky Kate meets Luc, a somewhat sleazy character who just happens to be a thief -- and who secretly plants a stolen possession in her bag. Luc intends to retrieve the loot when they land; unfortunately a conman grabs the bag first, thwarting Luc's well-laid plans. Soon he and Kate are frantically scouring the beautiful French countryside in hopes of getting back her precious carry-on.| The romantic situation hardly goes smoothly, either: Kate continues her obsession with ex-fianc Charlie, while Charlie's new girlfriend takes a liking to Luc... who unexpectantly falls in love with the broken-hearted Kate.

5 of 5 An ALL-TIME favorite for years now Tuesday, February 12, 2008
SunflowersnSpice from North Idaho
I'd about worn out my old VHS copy so when I saw the widescreen dvd and had to grab it. This movie is the greatest - Meg Ryan is adorable and Kevin Kline is the perfect Frenchman here. Makes you laugh out loud, has some super memorable lines, and the romance is too fun! Was this review helpful?

A very entertaining `light-hearted' movie for the romantic of heart. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Breezy romantic comedy Tuesday, July 02, 2002
Lynda from Brentwood, NY
This breezy romantic comedy harkens back to the days of "It Happened One Night" and the "Philadelphia Story". The interplay between Meg Ryan and Kevin Klien is near letter perfect, one wishes they would have made more movies together.
All in all, it's worth your time!!! Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Wonderful Thursday, February 17, 2000
minpark@post.harvard.edu from
While French Kiss may not have performed very well in the box office and the plot is fairly thin, I believe it is definitely the most entertaining romantic comedy in recent years. The movie has a magical ability to take your mind off the daily grind and whisk you away into a fanciful romp through France and its wonderful countryside. Was this review helpful?
