Critics Consensus

Led by another appealing performance from Jean Dujardin, this sequel offers more absurdly fun action -- and more politically incorrect humor -- for fans of '60s spy films.

Simon Abrams

House Next Door

What makes Lost in Rio more entertaining than it should be is the few elements of misappropriated nostalgia that rise above the rest of the film's lunk-headed posturing thanks to good comic timing.

Peter Rainer

Christian Science Monitor

All this is mighty silly, but there's something to be said for watching a French movie that, for a change, isn't about l'amour, existential angst, or madness.

Rated: B-

Seattle Times

The tenor, tone and immaculately lampooned art direction often make up for shtick that gradually grows thin in the belly-laugh department.

Rated: 2.5/4

OSS 117: Lost in Rio is superior to its predecessor, and we’ll take our blessings where we can find them.

Rated: 2.5/4

Deep Focus Review

Hazanavicius is more interested in embracing film history than pop culture, which makes his spoof all the more enjoyable, even artful.

Rated: 3.5/4

From the Front Row

Less cohesive and less funny than its predecessor, completely lacking the creative spark that made Cairo, Nest of Spies such a riotous joy.

Rated: 2/4

Good looking and funny, but the humour is stretched a bit thin.

This prequel is actually funnier than its sequel, if you don't mind a silly plot.

Un peu réchauffé, mais la scène du Nazi Von Zimmel à la fin qui rappelle Shylock du Marchand de Venise de Shakespeare est géniale.
