Critic Reviews

Vince Mancini

Oct 1, 2018

Some movies provoke and challenge, others are just fun as hell. The World Is Yours is firmly among the latter, feeling “Hollywood” in all the best ways, though it’s also sneaky smart. If you have any friends that hate arthouse movies and refuse to read subtitles, this is the movie to convert them. Read full review

IndieWire David Ehrlich

May 18, 2018

A hyper-stylish and unexpectedly sweet rebuke to the idea that screwing people is a good way to get ahead, Gavras’ second feature manages the almost impossible task of mining something nice from the me-first mentality that’s been sweeping across modern Europe. Read full review

The Guardian Phil Hoad

Apr 28, 2019

Gavras has seized his chance, staging this uptempo, carnivalesque crime pic with panache and wit. Read full review

Peter Debruge

May 18, 2018

These criminals may be out of their league, but Gavras orchestrates it all with a surfeit of style and an irreverent sense of humor that spares no one, no matter their background. Read full review

Elisabeth Vincentelli

Dec 13, 2018

The young director Romain Gavras does not reinvent the comic caper in the French film The World Is Yours, but he revitalizes that genre with pop verve, goofy humor and visual sophistication. A flamboyant turn from Isabelle Adjani doesn’t hurt either, with the star sending up her own image as an aloof leading lady. Read full review

Jonathan Romney

May 18, 2018

In the hands of Romain Gavras – music video wiz and maker of 2010’s eccentric Our Day Will Come – and with a mischievously cast giving its best, the result is ebullient enough to feel fresh. Read full review

Stephen Dalton

May 18, 2018

The screenplay to The World Is Yours is sporadically hilarious though rarely subtle, relying a little too heavily on boorish stereotypes and slapstick violence for its broad humor. Read full review
