As with any drama set in Hollywood, it can't help but get meta at some points.

Katie Rosseinsky, Evening Standard, 23rd April 2022Chivalry review
Unfunny and unoriginal, Coogan's Hollywood satire misses the target.

Flora Carr, Radio Times, 22nd April 2022TV review: Chivalry, C4
Chivalry is not always laugh-out-loud hilarious but it makes plenty of pertinent points and the performances all round are strong.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 22nd April 2022Chivalry review
There are few more relevant topics for a satire than Hollywood's response to the #MeToo movement - even if any comedic take must walk the tightrope between po-faced outrage and mocking the genuinely scandalous consequences of the gender power imbalance.
