As a guy who prefers to watch action and adventure (crime, suspense, thrillers, sci-fi, westerns and more) I will succumb to watching romance shows and movies now and then to please my wife. From first glance I could tell Emily was not intended as a real-life drama; it's a romantic comedy/dramedy. As such I'd expect to see it populated with beautiful, interesting and outlandish characters, multiple love interests and the ensuing complications and awkward situations. And, yes, even stereotypes thrown into the mix. Ino one should be expecting realism here. I've always heard Paris was a dirty, run down city. Here it looks like an urban paradise. Should I ever travel to Paris I won't expect it to look as amazing as it does in Emily. But that doesn't take away from this light, fun romantic comedy/dramedy. I find Emily in Paris quite tolerable and even enjoyable. I am pleasantly surprised.
