Marianna Palka's quirky indie debut centred on two dysfunctional loners is hit and miss, but has enough originality to see it through. Read critic reviews

Audience Reviews for Good Dick

Jul 07, 2010

This movie trumps Punch-Drunk Love for strangest on-screen couple in a movie I've seen in recent months.

Daniel J D Super Reviewer
Jan 04, 2010

Very odd yet I completely loved it. Indie flick that doesn't seem so indie... Love the storyline, even though it's a bit crude, and am pleased with the results. Jason & Marianna were quite believable in their roles.

Leigh R Super Reviewer

It was enjoyable at a distance. It's not something I'd watch over and over, but I'm glad I gave it a watch!
