The Visitors 2 [Les Couloirs Du Temps - Les Visiteurs II] is a French comedy movie directed by Jean-Marie Poiré and released in 1998 as the sequel to the 1993 film, The Visitors. It stars Christian Clavier, Jean Reno, and Muriel Robin in lead roles and is known for its humorous take on time travel. The plot of the movie revolves around the two central characters, Count Godefroy de Montmirail (Christian Clavier) and his loyal servant Jacquouille la Fripouille (Jean Reno), who are accidentally transported from the 12th century to the 20th century France. The duo - who do not understand the cultural norms and ways of the modern world - find themselves in a series of wacky and comical situations.

The movie begins with the Count, Jacquouille, and the Count's fiancée, Frénégonde, traveling through a time portal to reach the 20th century, to seek a potion that will help the Count to conceive a child. However, things do not go as planned, and they end up in the wrong period of time. Alone and without any assistance from the time-traveling monk (played by Pierre Vial), they must navigate their way through a strange and confusing landscape, which is filled with new inventions such as cars, phones, and the likes.

As the Count tries to adjust to the modern world and looks for ways to return to his own time, he meets a descendant of his family, Béatrice de Montmirail (also played by Clavier) and finds himself drawn to her. Meanwhile, Jacquouille finds himself befriending a young girl, Ginette (Muriel Robin), who mistakes him for a homeless person and takes him under her wing.

The movie is filled with hilarious scenes that bring out the stark contrast between the medieval and modern world, from the Count's failed attempt at driving a car, to Jacquouille's encounter with a vending machine. The movie has also incorporated various historical references, making it a perfect blend of humor and history.

The acting performances are top-notch, with Christian Clavier and Jean Reno showing off their impeccable comic timing and delivering a series of laugh-out-loud moments. Muriel Robin provides excellent support and brings her own charm and humor to her character of Ginette.
