Stuck in the corridors of time, Godefroy de Montmirail and his faithful servant Jacquouille are projected to a time of profound political and social upheavals: the French Revolution... specifically, The Terror, time of great dangers, during which the descendants of Godefroy and Jacquouille had their castle and all their property confiscated by arrogant aristocrats, fleeing and lifes hanging by a thread.
The third installment of the French Visitors franchise returns to the same time-travel fish-out-of-water formula with diminishing returns. The premise of sending Godefroy and Jacquouille to the French Revolution has some conceptual interest, but the execution is largely recycled gags and situations from the prior films. Acting from the returning cast is competent but on autopilot, and the production values are adequate without being distinctive. The film largely coasts on nostalgia for the original rather than offering fresh comedic or narrative invention, resulting in a by-the-numbers sequel that fails to justify its existence beyond brand extension.
