Havanicius sprays his subject with acid wit, and will delight cinéastes with several cunning pastiches of Godard's film-making style, though it's difficult to imagine that the venerable auteur, now 86, will see the joke.

Le Redoutable is a jokey Wikipedia cartoon of a biopic, skin deep in its character study and aggressively amused by its own barrage of Trivial Pursuit winks.

Hazanavicius beautifully recaptures the anarchic energy of Godard's iconic early works.

On the whole Redoubtable offers its audience way more than they bargained for with its genuinely impressive period representation of the events of 68, but it is ultimately let down but not quite knowing what it wants to be.

Although it's probably not the film hardcore Godard fans wanted, Redoubtable is a funny, paint-by-numbers biopic about a man who revolutionized cinema as we know it, and remains a significant attempt nonetheless.

Serious cinephiles will likely reject it as glib and disrespectful, while more mainstream viewers could be amused but not that interested.
