The potentially dry subject matter is given a wry telling by Hazanavicius, whose film brims with the signature style of his subject, employing bold, colourful intertitles, showboating tracking shots and fourth-wall-breaking asides.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 2, 2024

Hazanavicius is a talented cinematic mimic who is adept at the art of parody and pastiche. It may be about Godard [but it is] closer to the whimsy and playfulness of Francois Truffaut.

Part homage, part dissection, this cheeky drama (based on the recently deceased Wiaemsky's memoirs) is a cleverly meta piece that is often very funny...

Godard Mon Amour is a film strictly for Godard devotees, fans who never jumped from the train even when its journey seemed lost in a fog of outdated political slogans and stale cant.

| Jun 2, 2020

Godard Mon Amour is a film that will mostly appeal to fan of man and fans of French cinema. It feels like an old school French film while looking the part and being filled with attention to details on all fronts.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 11, 2020

Godard Mon Amour is a witty and and whimsical new film from Michel Hazanavicius, who directed the Oscar-winning stunner, The Artist.

| Nov 22, 2019

It is not a despicable film, but it is a failed proposal that doesn't know what exactly it wants to be. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Aug 8, 2019

A strange and seemingly pointless exercise in self congratulation that turns the romantic travails of two legendary cinema artists into cheap tabloid fodder.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 3, 2019

Being reminded that an artist's genius sometimes contradicts his humanity has the effect of a wake-up call -- even though Hazanavicius reduces the innovator who changed the world to film-buff inside-jokes.

| Nov 1, 2018

Michel Hazanavicius...has made another pastiche film that's wickedly funny at times.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 17, 2018

Talk about Contempt!

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 14, 2018

Godard Mon Amour plays like an all-over-the-place pastiche of biography and roast that says little.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Aug 28, 2018

The actors, it should be noted, do a good job with their somewhat ungrateful parts, but there is not much they can do to elevate the film from its determined superficiality.

| Original Score: 46/100 | Jul 23, 2018

Occasionally disrespectful and hugely amusing... It's carried off with an irreverence that would delight Mel Brooks.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 18, 2018

Disciples of Godard will be gritting their teeth... but then Redoubtable isn't really for them.

| May 15, 2018

It's irreverent about a filmmaker many admire, and interesting, but not very emotionally involving and unlikely to leave you Breathless.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 15, 2018

Hazanavicius's film is full of stylistic nods to Godard, but is a bit of a hatchet job: it may also be accurate.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 15, 2018

When the only person in your movie is a dead zone, your film follows suit.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 15, 2018

In the end, it plays like the sort of thin comedy about creativity that Woody Allen (whose better films are also homaged here) regularly knocks out.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 13, 2018

I found myself chuckling throughout Redoubtable, surprisingly entertained by its slapstick iconoclasm.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 13, 2018
