Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie review
Some were trepidatious about this belated big-screen outing for the fashionista sitcom. In fact, post-referendum, the timing couldn't be better ... and neither could Joanna Lumley.
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 30th June 2016Film review: 'Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie'
Structure is as much anathema to Saunders' writing style as it is to her alter ego's entire lifestyle; this is the comedic equivalent of paintball, and when her splatter-shots land, they do so to raucous effect.
Guy Lodge, Yahoo, 30th June 2016Review - Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie
BBC comedy makes a wobbly transfer to the big screen but its two delicious lead performances keep the comedy fizzing along.
Jason Solomons, Reuters, 30th June 2016'Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie': Review
"All I ever wanted was not to be fat and old!" cries PR guru and bad gran Edina Monsoon, bewailing the time when "the zeitgeist used to run right through me". As her best friend Patsy injects herself with Botox, flips through Tinder and quaffs Chanel No 5 because they've run out of Bolly, it's clear that writer/star Jennifer Saunders hasn't lost her touch over the quarter century since these characters were first conceived for TV.
Fionnuala Halligan, Screen Daily, 30th June 2016Absolutely Fabulous review
Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie is ridiculous, riotous and a bit of a mess but Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley save the day and raise our spirits when we need them the most.
Stefan Kyriazis, The Daily Express, 30th June 2016Absolutely Fabulous The Movie review

Charles Grant, Heat Magazine, 30th June 2016Ab Fab The Movie review: cameos drab, but leads are fab
No matter how much fashion has moved forward, Eddy and Patsy will always be in style.
Hanna Flint, Metro, 30th June 2016Absolutely Fabulous the Movie: the magic is still there
Remarkably, the questions 'why now' or simply 'why' feel irrelevant when watching the Absolutely Fabulous movie.
Jim Palmer, Wimbledon Guardian, 30th June 2016Ab Fab The Movie review: Patsy and Eddy turned up to 11 (Link expired)
Despite its flimsy plot, this remains worth seeing for the comic chemistry between Saunders and Lumley, which is as irresistible as it is hilarious.
