Film review: 'Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie'

Structure is as much anathema to Saunders' writing style as it is to her alter ego's entire lifestyle; this is the comedic equivalent of paintball, and when her splatter-shots land, they do so to raucous effect.

Absolutely Fabulous: The movie - bolly good show!

The jokes spring out at you from our crumpled old friends, sharp and fresh and pleasingly tasteless.

'Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie': Review

"All I ever wanted was not to be fat and old!" cries PR guru and bad gran Edina Monsoon, bewailing the time when "the zeitgeist used to run right through me". As her best friend Patsy injects herself with Botox, flips through Tinder and quaffs Chanel No 5 because they've run out of Bolly, it's clear that writer/star Jennifer Saunders hasn't lost her touch over the quarter century since these characters were first conceived for TV.

Absolutely Fabulous review

Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie is ridiculous, riotous and a bit of a mess but Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley save the day and raise our spirits when we need them the most.

Absolutely Fabulous the Movie: the magic is still there

Remarkably, the questions 'why now' or simply 'why' feel irrelevant when watching the Absolutely Fabulous movie.

'Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie': film review

An endearing shambles, much like the original show.

Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie - wearing its yeas well

The plotting is lazy, but this big-screen reboot of the much-loved sitcom gets by thanks to its stars and to the endless goodwill cameos.
