Jet Lag (2002)
5/10
Disappointing Romance
18 September 2004
In the airport of Paris, the aesthetician Rose (Juliette Binoche) is flying to Acapulco to work in Ritz Hotel and escape from her former mate, the violent Sergio (Sergi Lopez). Félix (Jean Reno) is a businessman in the market of frozen food, who is flying to Munich to a funeral and see his former love Katia. Due to a strike of the employees of the air company first and the bad weather later, they get trapped in Hilton Hotel, where they have a close contact and fall in love for each other. This movie is very disappointing. Juliette Binoche and Jean Reno do not have the necessary chemistry to make their romance attractive. The dialogs are boring and non-interesting and the scenes are shot in few locations. The end is horrible: this is the first time I see a love story without the couple somehow together in the end. There are only few good moments along the story. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): 'Fuso Horário do Amor' ('Jet Leg of the Love')
