Absolutely Fabulous: The movie - bolly good show!
The jokes spring out at you from our crumpled old friends, sharp and fresh and pleasingly tasteless.
Libby Purves, Daily Mail, 30th June 2016Review - Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie
BBC comedy makes a wobbly transfer to the big screen but its two delicious lead performances keep the comedy fizzing along.
Jason Solomons, Reuters, 30th June 2016'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.
Fionnuala Halligan, Screen Daily, 30th June 2016Absolutely 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.
Stefan Kyriazis, The Daily Express, 30th June 2016Absolutely Fabulous the Movie: the magic is still there
Remarkably, the questions 'why now' or simply 'why' feel irrelevant when watching the Absolutely Fabulous movie.
Jim Palmer, Wimbledon Guardian, 30th June 2016Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie review: Sometimes funny
A must for fans of the TV series, even if the story goes nowhere in particular.
Nigel Andrews, The Financial Times, 30th June 2016'Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie': film review
An endearing shambles, much like the original show.
Leslie Felperin, Hollywood Reporter, 29th June 2016Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie - review
British sitcoms face particular challenges when they attempt the big screen, since the charm of our comedy is that it tends to be small scale, low-budget and full of interestingly unglamorous people. Ab Fab largely escapes that parochial feel thanks to its implausibly wealthy fashion setting, yet this chaotic stumble onto the big screen somehow still comes close to disaster.

Carl Greenwood, The Mirror, 22nd February 2016Johnny Vegas accidentally flashed Joan Collins
