If you aren't film literate, you're likely to miss about half the jokes, but film buffs may find this hysterical.

Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader
Rotten

While some will be amused by the madcap nature of it all, others, especially offshore viewers, are more likely to be worn down by Peretjatko's self-indulgence.

Jay Weissberg, Variety

An irreverent and inventive feature debut from Antonin Peretjatko, The Rendezvous of Deja vu (La Fille du 14 Juillet) is a freeform throwback to the fast and funny New Wave films of Jean-Luc Godard and Jacques Rozier.
