Cycling with Molière

"For Francophiles of a literary bent, just hearing these two actors silkily unfurling their lines will be frisson enough"

"The screenplay ultimately bears out Alceste's observations about treachery, selfishness and deceit, but with such charm and zest that their sting tickles more than it hurts."

"It is urbane and watchable, if occasionally flimsy and lightweight, often seeming to bowl aimlessly about, like the two leads on their rickety bicycles."

"Lacks the roughness of real life, or even the expressiveness of cinema. It plays like theater-and dinner theater at that."

"The great Fabrice Luchini adds a caustic spark to this minor-key, putting-on-a-play comedy."

"A refreshingly elegant and literate film"

"A skillfully played, modern-day take on a French classic."

"Beautifully performed by its two leads... a comic treat."
