Le Divorce Movie Synopsis

In this modern-day comedy of manners, American sisters Isabel (Hudson) and Roxy (Watts) come face to face with the complicated social mores of French society. Pregnant and jilted by her scoundrel husband, Roxy is headed for Le Divorce, while Isabel leaps into l’amour with a married French diplomat who happens to be the uncle of Roxy’s soon-to-be-ex. Culture clash and scandal ensue as the sisters learn what it really takes to be an American in Paris.

Kate Hudson & Naomi Watts are funny & beautiful. I enjoyed the movie, but it sure would be better if the characters were better developed. All the male roles in this movie is dumb, immature, selfish & dis-respectful to women. It`s rather confusing to have 2 languages within the entire movie.

This movie was wretched! It haunted me for weeks. I was drawn to it because of Leslie Caron, but the characters were so immature and selfish it left a bad taste in my mouth. I had to watch GiGi multiple times to get this movie out of my head.

Characters were so badly undeveloped. Just because you add another language into it, doesn`t make it any better. People sitting behind us couldn`t even follow the story line, i understand leaving things to the imagination, but leaving everything doesn`t make a good movie.
