Mark Keizer Variety If you're wondering how the iconoclastic Dupontel would incorporate [his characters] into a comedy, drama, satire or farce, therein lies the issue: Bye Bye Morons tries to be all four of those genres at once, often to its detriment. Dec 30, 2021 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) It's amiable enough, but this broad French comedy is not distinctive enough for the arthouse crowd, and too Gallic for the mainstream. Rated: 2/5 Jul 25, 2021 Full Review Ariel Klinghoffer Little White Lies Any excitement drops off after the first act and Mad Libs can help you predict the ending. Rated: 1/5 Jul 23, 2021 Full Review James Marsh South China Morning Post For all its dazzling production design and spirited buffoonery, the film is achingly unfunny. Rated: 2/5 Nov 4, 2021 Full Review Filipe Freitas Always Good Movies Lacking ambition... it will be a disaster if you expect a clever plot with excitement and twists. Rated: 2/5 Oct 19, 2021 Full Review Daniel de Partearroyo Cinemanía (Spain) Virginie Efira radiates star power. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 7, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
