British Comedy Guide, 5th July 2016Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie - review
Producers did not release the Ab Fab film to the critics ahead of its release yesterday, which is rarely a vote of confidence. Add to that the fact that it's a big-screen adaptation of a sitcom - a genre with a patchy track record, The Inbetweeners Movie notwithstanding - and that it uses the tired and tested plot device of plonking their characters somewhere foreign, and the signs are not encouraging. Yet despite such portents, Absolutely Fabulous is as much of a fun, raucous romp as fans would have hoped for - director Mandie Fletcher throwing proceedings into the preposterous story and high camp with as much vigour now as there was when the series started a rather incredible 24 years ago.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 2nd July 2016Review - Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie
I am not sure quite why Saunders chose to make this film as it is clearly way past its peak and although she and Lumley are as brilliant as ever in their roles there is a feeling they are sleepwalking their way through them; they even on occasion throw out a few greatest hits moments. The thing is, due to re-runs and box sets, these are not as funny as they should be as familiarity alongside predictability are the curse of any comedy.

Kasia Delgado, Radio Times, 1st July 2016Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie review
The ever-flawless Joanna Lumley steals the movie.
James Luxford, Radio Times, 1st July 2016Review: Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie
Celeb cameos galore - including one from a GSN staffer! - in this screwball comedy, but beware a lazy Caitlyn Jenner-inspired subplot, sweetie.
Jamie Tabberer, Gay Star News, 30th June 2016Review: Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie
Joanna Lumley steals the show in the sitcom's fun, not quite fabulous big screen outing.
Katherine McLaughlin, The List, 30th June 2016Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie review: Sometimes funny
A must for fans of the TV series, even if the story goes nowhere in particular.
