Pros

Sort
  • 4.9
    11 reviews strong consensus
    faithfulness to source material: 4.9, 11 reviews, strong consensus
    This is the strongest point of agreement: the movie preserves the series’ wit, warmth, character dynamics, and chaotic workplace spirit. Reviewers repeatedly praise it for moving the characters forward without losing what made the show distinctive.
  • 4.8
    9 reviews strong consensus
    acting performance: 4.8, 9 reviews, strong consensus
    The ensemble is one of the movie’s clearest strengths, with sharp comic timing and an easy return to familiar character rhythms. Even more mixed takes still find the cast a major reason the reunion works.
  • 4.8
    8 reviews strong consensus
    supporting cast performance: 4.8, 8 reviews, strong consensus
    The returning ensemble and guest players supply many of the movie’s best moments. Calamy, Rovère, Macaigne, and the celebrity cameos draw particular praise, though not every cameo or reduced role feels equally useful.
  • 5.0
    6 reviews strong consensus
    chemistry between characters: 5.0, 6 reviews, strong consensus
    The returning ensemble chemistry is repeatedly singled out as a major pleasure. Andréa and Noémie’s contrasting energies make an especially strong comic double act, while the wider friendships feel genuine rather than manufactured.
  • 4.5
    11 reviews moderate consensus
    humor: 4.5, 11 reviews, moderate consensus
    The comedy is widely praised for industry jokes, frantic mishaps, and character-based banter, with several standout cameos. A minority view finds the film more interesting than funny, so the humor is strong but not universal.
  • 4.3
    13 reviews moderate consensus
    audience appeal: 4.3, 13 reviews, moderate consensus
    Longtime fans are the safest audience, and several critics call the reunion exactly the nostalgic return they wanted. Newcomer reactions are split: some followed it easily, while others felt the tangled history makes prior series knowledge important.
  • 4.9
    4 reviews strong consensus
    lead performance: 4.9, 4 reviews, strong consensus
    Camille Cottin is consistently praised as an assured center for the chaos, bringing dry intelligence and cool glamour to Andréa. Her performance helps the movie carry the weight of the reunion.
  • 4.5
    6 reviews strong consensus
    entertainment value: 4.5, 6 reviews, strong consensus
    Most reactions describe the film as warm, funny, watchable, and satisfying, especially for fans. Even reviewers who note pacing or structural flaws still find the reunion enjoyable overall.
  • 4.2
    9 reviews strong consensus
    story quality: 4.2, 9 reviews, strong consensus
    The filmmaking-disaster premise gives the returning cast an engaging reason to reunite and works best when it turns production chaos into character comedy. Some reviewers find individual set pieces weaker or too dependent on prior attachment.
  • 4.8
    3 reviews strong consensus
    genre satisfaction: 4.8, 3 reviews, strong consensus
    The mix of workplace satire, French farce, and comedy-drama largely lands as intended. Reviewers who respond to that blend find it lively and familiar, though one newcomer wanted more consistent comedy.
  • 4.8
    3 reviews strong consensus
    screenplay quality: 4.8, 3 reviews, strong consensus
    The script preserves the characters’ voices, fires off industry barbs quickly, and keeps the continuation true to the show. Its density can make some satire harder for outsiders to catch, but the writing is broadly admired.
  • 4.7
    3 reviews strong consensus
    dialogue quality: 4.7, 3 reviews, strong consensus
    Fast, barbed dialogue remains one of the film’s defining strengths. The banter and industry digs move quickly enough that some outsiders may miss nuances, but the verbal rhythm is consistently praised.
  • 4.7
    3 reviews strong consensus
    emotional impact: 4.7, 3 reviews, strong consensus
    Beneath the farce, the reunion lands genuine warmth through the group’s loyalty and shared history. Liliane Rovère’s late contribution is singled out as an especially emotional high point.
  • 4.7
    3 reviews strong consensus
    message quality: 4.7, 3 reviews, strong consensus
    The film’s warmest idea is that filmmaking is a communal effort sustained by people who keep showing up for one another. Its show-business satire also carries pointed observations about the French industry.
  • 4.4
    4 reviews moderate consensus
    tonal consistency: 4.4, 4 reviews, moderate consensus
    Most reactions think the film balances warmth, satire, and farce without becoming smug or overly sentimental. The main reservation is that a few sequences drift toward cartoonish excess.
  • 4.0
    6 reviews strong consensus
    character development: 4.0, 6 reviews, strong consensus
    Andréa and Noémie gain believable new responsibilities and maturity, and some viewers liked seeing how far the group has evolved. The feature format leaves a few returning characters underused or stuck with thinner arcs.
  • 4.5
    2 reviews limited evidence
    visual style: 4.5, 2 reviews, limited evidence
    Glossy widescreen photography, glamorous sequences, and a warmer palette give the film a polished look. The visual upgrade helps the feature feel more expansive while still belonging to the series.
  • 3.8
    5 reviews moderate consensus
    plot clarity: 3.8, 5 reviews, moderate consensus
    Accessibility depends heavily on the viewer. Some newcomers found the recap and self-contained crisis easy to follow, while other critics felt the tangled relationships assume basic familiarity with the series.
  • 4.3
    2 reviews limited evidence
    originality: 4.3, 2 reviews, limited evidence
    The continuation avoids the easiest reset button and gives the old group a new filmmaking crisis instead of simply rebuilding ASK. That creates enough fresh material to feel like more than a repetition of the series.
  • 4.3
    2 reviews limited evidence
    plot originality: 4.3, 2 reviews, limited evidence
    The film earns credit for advancing the characters through a new production storyline rather than restoring the old office setup. It keeps continuity while finding a different problem for the ensemble to solve.
  • 3.8
    4 reviews low consensus
    pacing: 3.8, 4 reviews, low consensus
    Pacing is the most recurring craft complaint. Some reviewers love the fleet, fast-talking momentum, while others find the middle saggy or certain scenes unnecessarily stretched.

    1 review
    suspense: 4.5, 1 review

  • 4.5
    1 review
    theme depth: 4.5, 1 review
    The film adds depth to its industry comedy by treating cinema as both work and community. Its affection for people who build movies together gives the reunion more substance than a purely nostalgic special.
  • 4.0
    1 review
    drama quality: 4.0, 1 review
    One newcomer found the movie more convincing as behind-the-scenes filmmaking drama than as full-on comedy. The professional crises and personal complications gave the story enough substance to stay interesting.

Cons

  • 2.5
    1 review
    ending satisfaction: 2.5, 1 review
    The ending is one of the few clearly criticized elements, with the movie stopping abruptly while some character business still feels unfinished. That leaves the finale less satisfying than the otherwise warm reunion.
  • 2.8
    2 reviews limited evidence
    runtime: 2.8, 2 reviews, limited evidence
    The feature length is a mixed fit for the ensemble. Two hours can feel stretched in individual scenes yet still leaves less room than the series had for every returning character.

    8 reviews strong consensus
    Laure Calamy: 4.7, 8 reviews, strong consensus
    Calamy is one of the movie’s biggest performance highlights, bringing chaotic warmth, comic energy, and emotional weight to Noémie. A more mixed take finds some exaggerated plot turns harder for even her charisma to sell.
  • Actor
    4.8
    6 reviews strong consensus
    George Clooney: 4.8, 6 reviews, strong consensus
    Clooney’s self-aware cameo is one of the movie’s most consistently praised guest turns. His scene is repeatedly singled out as funny, generous, and scene-stealing.
  • Andrea
    4.8
    5 reviews strong consensus
    Camille Cottin: 4.8, 5 reviews, strong consensus

    5 reviews strong consensus
    Fanny Herrero: 4.8, 5 reviews, strong consensus

  • Arlette
    5.0
    3 reviews strong consensus

  • Hervé
    5.0
    3 reviews strong consensus
    Nicolas Maury: 5.0, 3 reviews, strong consensus
    Maury remains a reliable comic spark, from the fourth-wall opening to Hervé’s magnificently overplayed bit-part antics. His return is repeatedly treated as one of the ensemble’s funniest contributions.
