Independent (UK)
The writing here is sometimes arch and laboured but Allam puts across even the most stilted lines with enormous brio.

The List
Lacking the zeal and comic energy that the material requires, The Hippopotamus feels like a soufflé that has failed to rise, leaving a film that can only be recommended to diehard Allam devotees.
