Some beautiful moments are to be found in this movie, a sequel in spirit to Paris Je T'aime, where a bunch of directors make a collection of shorts dedicated to a city. Standouts for me were the one where Anton Yelchin (Star Trek) takes a paralyzed girl to prom, and an old married couple (Eli Wallach, Cloris Leachman) just taking a stroll. And yet in some ways, it's like reading a bunch of high-quality Hallmark cards in a row.
