Reviews for Dick
The movie has the comic sophistication of a creaky high-school skit.
01/01/00
Dunst and Williams are adequately perky and dumb, while the cast members playing the White House crew deliver quirky and entertaining performances.
01/01/00
No matter what your age, your politics and your passions, the movie delivers big time!
01/01/00
A gimmick film!

Top CriticThe movie quickly thunders downhill like a massive boulder, effectively trampling things like common sense, taste, and, most importantly, historical significance.
01/01/00
The execution was neither dark nor clever enough to engage adults nor wacky enough to engage the younger set.

This modest movie offers a convincing vision of Nixon White House operations as a sordid buffoon show undone by a couple of painfully earnest innocents.
01/01/00
A sly, extremely potent political satire, aided by a first-rate cast that hungrily dig into their respective roles with a vengeance.
01/01/00
A breezy, occasionally funny spoof.

The script offers no new twists on Nixon; the old standby characterization of the president and his cohorts as bumbling idiots is played out to the fullest.

Top CriticDick is pleasant, sometimes engaging, but overall, it's not for everyone.
01/01/00
Fleming overlooks the concept that satire must be grounded in a recognizably realistic portrayal of characters.
01/01/00
Makes particular aspects of the recent American past comprehensible to those too young to have lived them.
