What to Know

Critics Consensus

Perhaps fittingly for an ostensible omnibus comedy about infidelity, The Players fails to find the humor in its subject, cheating viewers out of 109 minutes along the way.

Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) Jul 6, 2012
1/5
A series of pointless, boorish skits about two unrepentant lotharios. Go to Full Review
Henry Barnes Guardian Jul 5, 2012
3/5
Stick out the glaringly unfunny prologue and you'll see the former George Valentin come good, with Dujardin and co-star Gilles Lellouche assuming a series of roles that see past the sex and explore men's impulse to cheat. Go to Full Review
Nigel Andrews Financial Times Jul 5, 2012
3/5
If The Players achieves little else, it proves that Dujardin can extend his range well beyond the boulevard smirk and the Brylcreemed charm. Go to Full Review
Michael Nordine L.A. Weekly Apr 9, 2014
The rare omnibus film that isn't just a mixed bag--it very nearly succeeds at being uniformly bad. Go to Full Review
Graham Young Birmingham Post Aug 9, 2012
2/5
The shallowness of people who live this way is as dispiriting as the action is meant to be titillating. Go to Full Review
Alan Jones Radio Times Jul 11, 2012
2/5
A vulgar, variable and very French take on infidelity. Go to Full Review
