It’s impossible not to enjoy this big-hearted and sweet-natured British family movie.

Bright, lively and funny.

What We Did On Our Holiday sets up a sturdy comic scenario and then proceeds to head in another direction altogether—one that’s nearly impossible to anticipate, making the film much more of a goofy delight than would have seemed likely at the outset.

Village Voice
Jones and Connolly have terrific chemistry, particularly as Lottie works through the fact that adults encourage dishonesty and lying when it suits their own needs, and that secrets are more pervasive than openness.

Empire
Despite a second act lull, Connolly convinces in this cute and charming comedy.
