	Author	Review
United States	Andrew Barker Variety	"Low-brow antics get in the way of a fertile comic premise (...) A winning film this could have been had it settled into a lower register"	NEU
United States	Sara Stewart New York Post	"Delpy’s ace screenwriting shines in the film’s early scenes (...) even the most extreme punishments are softened by hilariously neurotic dialogue. Vive la Delpy! (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter	"Delpy convincingly moves into the mainstream (...) Lolo has a solid laughs-per-minute rate and enough twists to overcome the occasional screenplay hiccup"	POS
United States	Nicolas Rapold The New York Times	"As a character, Lolo is a conceit of indulgent parenting and never fully blooms."	NEU
United Kingdom	Tim Grierson Screendaily	"Despite the sexy, grownup rapport exhibited by Delpy and co-star Dany Boon, this would-be farce quickly implodes."	NEU
