Red Nose Day Actually review
Despite all the celeb cameos the charity update of Richard Curtis's romcom was bafflingly weak. But ultimately its job wasn't to get laughs - it was to help people.
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 25th March 2017Absolutely 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.
The Quotidian Times, 2nd July 2016Absolutely 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 2016Absolutely Fabulous: The movie - bolly good show!
The jokes spring out at you from our crumpled old friends, sharp and fresh and pleasingly tasteless.
Libby Purves, Daily Mail, 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 2016Absolutely Fabulous - The Movie: review
Ab Fab is truly back, fatter and shinier than ever! A bit of sparkle in these bleak times. So, Jennifer Saunders I am obliged to say: cheers, thanks a lot.
Kate Stone, Funny Women, 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 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.
