Monsieur Hulot reist nach Paris und findet sich in einer futuristischen Metropole wieder. Die ganze Stadt scheint aus Robotern, Stahl und Kunststoff zu bestehen. Die moderne Technik hält überall Einzug und es regiert perfektionistischer Fortschrittswahn. Monsieur Hulot irrt durch ein kaltes Großstadtlabyrinth und sieht sich, wohl oder übel, mit allen Irrungen und Wirrungen der schönen neuen Welt konfrontiert. (KinoweltTV)

A film where everything happens very quickly and chaotically, but at the same time nothing happens – just like in the modern, impersonal times it satirically describes. That the work with sound perspective is amazing (as it is) and that every formal choice matches to perfection Tati's symbolic intentions is not enough to make the film a mega-fun and inspiring classic. There are some really great ideas, and the restaurant scene is certainly good, but I can't shake the feeling that it's disproportionately drawn out, and that if I were to film me and my friends' nightlife, the mise-en-scène would have offered far greater and more numerous gems to laugh at, in every sense… ()
Jacques Tati's films are so specific that you feel like you are watching someone who understood the world so uniquely that either you tune into his wavelength or not. In this case, it is a film that is and is not a grotesque, is and is not a comedy. Such portrayal of society is truly not far from reality, which sometimes gives quite a chill. ()
