Critics Consensus: The plot may be problematic, but such concerns are rendered superfluous by Gene Kelly and Leslie Caron's star power, the Gershwins' classic songs, and Vincente Minnelli's colorful, sympathetic direction.

Reviews

Film Frenzy

Matt Brunson

The climactic “An American in Paris Ballet” sequence is the film’s most famous, although I’ve always had a soft spot for Kelly singing “I Got Rhythm” with the assistance of a group of children.

Vincente Minnelli’s dreamlike musical, An American in Paris, paired the catchy tunes of George and Ira Gershwin with the electric charisma of Gene Kelly. The result is a mesmerizing and romantic anecdote... radical at the time and iconic to this day.
