Alexsander F Mais um belíssimo filme de Jacques Tati, que não precisam de uma palavra se quer para ter um significado imenso, é como se diz, "Feliz no Simples", mas o simples de Jacques Tati, é a mais sofisticada arte cinematográfica já vista. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/16/24 Full Review Aender S Classic moment when Hulot is sitting there smoking his pipe and listening to loud jazz. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/14/24 Full Review Simon T Tati at his most whimsical and charming. It's not just a wry comedy, it's threaded with an unforced, barely perceptible melancholy. These kinds of holidays, where eccentric strangers negotiate each other's foibles and are summoned to indifferent meals by a bell, no longer exist. When did you last see men wearing heavy jackets and smoking pipes as they strolled on the beach. It's a lovely film, but the restored version is no improvement and Tati was ill-advised to tinker with it. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/09/23 Full Review Audience Member "Mr. Hulot's Holiday" is a film of sumptuous nostalgic charm, universal in its propensity to evoke poignant recollections of our loveliest holidays from times past. We ease our way into a world that beautifully suits everything that we appreciate about a good holiday, including complete freedom from the purpose-driven constraints of conventional plot. We savor idyllic afternoons by the seaside, witnessing many affectionately comic moments that range from audaciously hammy to outrageously funny. Any notable deficit in outward belly-laughter is easily recompensed with a persistent sense of expansive enjoyment that quietly surpasses the heights of traditional hilarity. When the holiday eventually comes to an end, we relish the prospect of returning to a time and place that has quickly attained an enduring place in our hearts and memories. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member This is no more than an average comedy! Even though it is one of Jacque Tati's better movies it still lacks the natural flow of humor. Despite the fact most of the actors fit the circumstances quite well. Tati's reactions and acting performances are overly strained and phony. Everything feels manipulated or forced; rather than befitting a real comedic aspect . Most of his stumbling moments are simply underwhelming and obviously faked. I could only find the storyline slightly amusing at best. As for real laughs Tati's work always falls short! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review J. D Meh. Not my cup of tea. Kind of like John Cleese...or Charlie Chaplin...but imo without the warmth, spontaneity, talent or wit.
