Leave your thoughts about French Film.
| TeletextVictor OlliverDirector Oudney's great skill is to play a touch on national stereotypes (that's comedy for you) before delving into the heart of her characters. |
| Sky CinemaTim EvansThis is a rich, beautifully written exploration of romantic self-delusion. The playing - particularly Bonneville - is assured and the dialogue constantly fires off cracking one-liners. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerEngaging, frequently amusing and surprisingly thoughtful British romcom, enlivened by strong performances from its four leads and a likeable comic turn from Cantona. |
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterCantona provides a few bright moments in French Film, a damp squib of a romantic comedy with little in the way of wit, flair or sparkle. |
| Financial TimesKarl FrenchThe treatment of French cinema is rather facile, and ultimately this is no more substantial than a half-decent television sitcom, or one of the slight, love-themed sketches in Scenes of a Sexual Nature, writer Aschlin Ditta's previous credit. |
| Film4Jon FortgangSacre bleu! C'est un perky British rom a la com avec un great self-mocking performance by Eric Cantona. |
| Daily Mirror (UK)David EdwardsA relationships drama with almost nothing to say about relationships - except that they ain't easy - the only memorable thing about this is a supporting turn by former footballer Eric Cantona. |
| Daily Mail (UK)Christopher TookeyThe actors give their all, but there's not enough here that's fresh. French Film is plodding and predictable - frightfully English, and not in a good way. |
| GuardianAndrew PulverThe result, however, is uneven: lurching from little-Englander spoofery to heartfelt emotionalising and back again - often in the same scene. |
| Observer (UK)Philip FrenchThe film is clever, funny and emotionally truthful and the parodies of Grimandi's films are deadly accurate. |
