No laughs - but still plenty to like in this diverting and insightful thriller that plays out in the higher echelons of the French judiciary and Parisian world of high business.
Dave Calhoun, Time Out

It is long past time to recognize Claude Chabrol and Isabelle Huppert as one of the cinema's great actress-director collaborations.
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

A witty, timely drama.
Bill Stamets, Chicago Sun-Times

It's not often that you see the craft of cinema so perfectly executed -- or a group of fancy scoundrels so ruthlessly caught and skewered. Comedy of Power, like all of [Cluade] Chabrol's Hitchcockian films, is dark, smart and delicious.
Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune

This movie can't commit to a genre, let alone a logical sequence or complete idea. But there is a wisdom in its blase assessments and frivolous air: What's the point; where's the wine?
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe
