It's a rollicking adventure yarn with a stellar cast and an engaging Hitchcockian flavour.

Top CriticHandsomely staged, ingeniously plotted and played with evident enjoyment, this is mainstream arthouse at its most entertaining.

Just about perfect.
03/20/04
Not only does the plot have the required twists and the action keep us at the edge of our seats, but the story is populated with interesting and believable characters.
05/13/04
...grand, intelligent, confident and adult -- which is just another way of saying that it is very French, in all the best ways.
08/25/04
A sophisticated farce about an unlikely subject.
05/07/04
Charms with its insouciant attitude toward the impending calamity surrounding the characters, but its froth may wear thin for some viewers.
05/09/04
One of the great pleasures of Bon Voyage is its evocation of a precise time and place in history.

Top CriticThe German occupation of France in June 1940 wasn't really so bad, if one is to believe the farcical goings-on.
01/18/04
Anyone with an open mind and curiosity about history might enjoy it.
05/21/04
This is a grand, confident entertainment, sure of the power of Adjani, Depardieu and the others, and sure of itself.
04/16/04
Top CriticA genre piece full of great actors and fabulous scenery, a rousing, full-blooded entertainment that uses serious themes and events mostly for pure pleasure.
04/15/04
Although visually appealing, the movie is too cavalier and shallow for its more weighty subject matter.
05/04/09
Rappeneau directs with dutiful predictability, even resorting to slow-motion when the hero throws a chair through a window...
05/17/04
The talk is too superficial to provide a hint of the characters' make-up.
02/27/04
It's all about as believable as those comic shorts in which The Three Stooges smacked around Adolph Hitler -- and no less entertaining.
