The situation is comic and yet quite serious, as are the ways in which language is used.

80
The New York Times by A.O. Scott
Sembène is a far more adroit and elegant storyteller than many may be accustomed to seeing.
100
Christian Science Monitor by David Sterritt
Intelligent yet easy-going masterpiece.
75
New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman
Both politically intricate and genuinely hilarious, Faat-Kine is a story grounded in dichotomies.
80
In every way a sunny film. Supremely affirmative, it ends with the funniest, sexiest close-up of the year.
80
Wildly entertaining and a visual delight.
75
A youthful, and often funny, piece of filmmaking. You might never expect that its director is 73 years old.
