Critics consensus

“A remarkable achievement, Playtime 's packs every scene with sight gags and characters that both celebrates and satirizes the urbanization of modern life.”

Tati's despair is modulated by a sense of wonder.

RTThe Times (UK)Nov 7, 2014

Jacques Tati's Playtime is an astringent antidote to Paris movies that are as sickly as macaroons and stuffed with views of the Eiffel Tower by night.

For my money Playtime is the greatest film ever made.

A film that begins coldly and gradually fills with life, defined throughout by its sparkling imagination.
