Entertainment Weekly
5 stars out of 5 -- Assayas sets a brisk pace, but while it feels light-hearted, his movie about movies has a dark undertow.
Uncut
...Assayas displays an intimate, informal style and a sharp sense of proportion that allows him to have some fun....IRMA VEP is as effortless as a shrug and boasts a film buff's dream cast...
Los Angeles Times
The matchless Maggie Cheung plays a version of herself -- a Hong Kong martial-arts star who speaks no French -- in Olivier Assayas's marvelous French-language film about the perils of filmmaking...
Wall Street Journal
...Mr. Léaud is slyly good...

Product Description:
Hong Kong diva Cheung stars as herself, having been cast on a director's whim as the slinky, cat-burgling heroine of a remake of the vintage French serial "Les Vampires." Once in Paris, Cheung encounters countless culture clashes, as well as set-related mishaps that echo Truffaut's charming "Day for Night."
