Michael Wilmington

The story is engrossing, full of thrills and humor, the period re-creation wondrous and the pace intoxicatingly brisk. And the actors are all so good and their parts so well-written that we're engaged emotionally as well. Read full review

Lisa Nesselson

A rousing, well-crafted romp packed with ingenuity, duplicity, close calls and heroic gestures, Bon Voyage is true to its title. Read full review

Stephen Holden

Blurs the line between comedy and epic drama so adroitly that the two styles fuse into something quite original: a lyrical farce that pays homage to its period in any number of ways. Read full review

Rene Rodriguez

A high-wire act of storytelling, tone and old-fashioned chutzpah. Read full review

Stanley Kauffmann

The result is a picture that, moving through political and social chaos, is stubbornly amusing. Read full review

Andrea Gronvall

It's well mounted and lushly photographed, and Rappeneau deftly orchestrates the crowd scenes as Parisian elites flock to Bordeaux, but the large cast doesn't mesh. Read full review

Ron Stringer

The cast's sometimes capable, sometimes gross mugging is overwhelmed by lavish costumes, shiny vintage cars, hordes of meticulously directed extras, and the here-incongruous seriousness with which the French still regard this momentous, if humiliating, chapter of their national history.
