Reviews
Critically, "Everything Must Disappear" received mixed to negative responses upon its release, reflecting its modest IMDb rating of 4.4/10. Many critics pointed out that while the film had an entertaining premise, it struggled with pacing and lacked the sharpness needed to elevate its comedy. Some reviews from French cinema commentators noted that Didier Bourdon's direction was energetic but the storyline felt uneven and predictable. According to a review on IMDb, viewers found the humor inconsistent, with some scenes generating genuine laughter but others falling flat due to clichéd gags. Rotten Tomatoes does not have an aggregated critic score for the movie, indicating limited international exposure. However, fans of Bourdon's work appreciated the film's spirited performances and its satirical take on corporate life, even if it did not achieve widespread acclaim. Metacritic also lacks a formal review score, hinting that "Everything Must Disappear" remains more of a niche title within French comedic cinema rather than a global hit.
