Mark Keizer Variety 12/30/2021
If you're wondering how the iconoclastic Dupontel would incorporate [his characters] into a comedy, drama, satire or farce, therein lies the issue: Bye Bye Morons tries to be all four of those genres at once, often to its detriment. Go to Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) 07/25/2021
2/5
It's amiable enough, but this broad French comedy is not distinctive enough for the arthouse crowd, and too Gallic for the mainstream. Go to Full Review Ariel Klinghoffer Little White Lies 07/23/2021
1/5
Any excitement drops off after the first act and Mad Libs can help you predict the ending. Go to Full Review James Marsh South China Morning Post 11/04/2021
2/5
For all its dazzling production design and spirited buffoonery, the film is achingly unfunny. Go to Full Review Filipe Freitas Always Good Movies 10/19/2021
2/5
Lacking ambition... it will be a disaster if you expect a clever plot with excitement and twists. Go to Full Review Daniel de Partearroyo Cinemanía (Spain) 09/07/2021
