This feels like the most fitting thing to watch after moving to LA. Aggressively laid back with a hint of chaos underneath. This barely worked for me but at the end of the day I still admire it. It’s so atmosphere heavy, and from what I’ve read Tati only gets more…
KarstenMar 1, 2020Oh, the pain and effort it takes for us all to relax. God save the Hulots of this world. They are of a dying breed and we need them!
Brett WrightMar 7, 2014I was alternately charmed and bored by Mr Hulot's Holiday. On one hand, it's quite atmospheric and some of the supporting characters are delightful. But on the other hand, the film moves along at such a labored pace that I had to fight hard not to lose patience with…

M. Hulot (Chaotic Good) Mr. Bean (Chaotic Evil)
CinemaVoid 🏴☠️Nov 22, 2014This is the cinematic equivalent of a relaxing Sunday afternoon. Far from rushed, grippingly lethargic, and gentle; but with the wild fireworks (both metaphoric AND literal) of Jacques Tati's genius. His sense of storytelling meets and exceeds Robert Altman's desire for a…

i think my favorite part of Hulot films is how every incidental character acts like a living Sim.

Off the top of my head, I can’t think of another star comedian who would allow this. Not…

It is not a comedy of hilarity but a comedy of memory, nostalgia, fondness and good cheer. There are some real laughs in it, but “Mr. Hulot’s Holiday” gives us something rarer, an amused affection for human nature–so odd, so valuable, so particular.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
A magnificent comic performance and a film of genial hilarity.
