I loved how Tati plays with the visuals (the perspective of the shots, the reflections) and especially the sounds. It's like a modern silent movie, but still as enjoyable because the scenes make sense without the need for dialogue. By removing the dialogues, you notice some (maybe exaggerated) everyday sounds that you would definitely miss. This film makes you feel like you're watching the characters through their lives, just like sitting in a crowded road and looking at the people walking by. It finds interesting ways to look at modern life.
It clearly isn't an over-the-top american comedy, that tries to make you laugh all the time. Play Time has slow moments, but also hilarious ones of course. It's closer to art than entertainment.
