Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter Explores not only the age-old quirks and idiosyncrasies of the well-off and privileged but also...contemporary issues such as the influence of the Internet and social media on our lives... Jul 23, 2018 Full Review Alberto Bermejo El Mundo (Spain) Funny but somewhat disenchanted, there's an air of sadness and melancholy. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Jul 27, 2018 Full Review Carlos Marañón Cinemanía (Spain) Agnès Jaoui's and Jean-Pierre Bacri's films, covered in disenchantment, have always been a search for reasons for optimism, with a bourgeois conformism that relieved or upset, according to the sensibility of each viewer.

Suc M I really enjoyed watching Place Publique. The film is a fascinating depiction of a clash of generations. It also did an excellent job of reminding me of rural France in the 1980s. It is a very interesting film, treating important topics in a more realistic way than many others. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/06/25 Full Review Audience Member The French can give us Brits a run for our money when it comes to producing witty, satirical comedies. Paris hipsters descend decamp to the countryside for a garden party. Jean-Pierre Bacri is a magnificent curmudgeon. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
