Review For Hyde Park on Hudson | |
| A languid, tedious effort that never bothers to get to the heart of its characters, the film is a shallow reading of a significant time told mostly from the viewpoint of a lifeless character. Connie Ogle-Miami Herald It's never a bad movie, but it can't quite gel into a good one either. Tom Long-Detroit News Hyde Park on the Hudson' is a forgettable historical footnote. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com The movie hinges on Murray's turn as FDR, and frankly, he comes up wanting. He looks and sounds nothing like the man, and barely makes an effort to rectify that. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service Essentially, Hyde Park on Hudson is a Shakespearean revel. Rick Groen-Globe and Mail Murray's spot-on portrayal of a man juggling myriad pressures and demands, from petty to momentous, marks one of the film's greatest strengths. Ann Hornaday-Washington Post Bill Murray proves a sound choice as the president who quietly battled polio. So too does Samuel West, as the stammering King George VI. Ed Gibbs-The National Whether it bears any resemblance to what actually happened is almost academic in a film that takes a precious moment in time and transforms it into a witty, civilised country house drama. Allan Hunter-The List Like the equally ludicrous Hitchcock, Hyde Park on Hudson is a character assassination posing as a movie. Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing Bill Murray is rarely more than serviceable as FDR in a film that is built around a romance more icky than sweet. Mike Scott-Times-Picayune The movie is most alive when Bill Murray's Roosevelt and Samuel West's King George VI retreat from the crowd and talk man to man. John Wirt-Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA) This 30's-set country house period drama will prove too dull for some (imagine Downtown Abbey without the soapy antics), but it works as a showcase for Murray to demonstrate some impressive range. Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor FDR Is Happy Diana Saenger-ReviewExpress.com I enjoyed the movie for what it is, though I wish it had a better sense of itself. Christopher Lloyd-Sarasota Herald-Tribune The film bounces jauntily along, it's never less than handsome to look at, and the actors all do fine jobs. Lawrence Toppman-Charlotte Observer 'The Day the King Ate a Hot Dog' might be a more informative title for this wispy historical trifle... John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) Splendidly splendid. Oscars all around: Murray, Linney, et al. Clint O'Connor-Cleveland Plain Dealer The film misses a choice opportunity to build a central story around its secondary one. Jon Niccum-Kansas City Star It's a nearly impossibly tall order, but Murray makes it work with an ease that results in the movie-award year's second-best performance as a U.S. president. Chris Foran-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel None of it is quite ridiculous enough to qualify as camp, nor weighty enough to qualify as insightful drama. Josh Bell-Las Vegas Weekly So devoid of any spark that it feels like watching someone's boring vacation videos. Jeffrey Lyles-Lyles' Movie Files ...Hyde Park on Hudson would've fared a whole lot better had it focused entirely on Roosevelt and the King's appealing exploits. David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews Bill Murray tries mightily to slide into the role of a great man, but it's not a comfortable fit. Corey Hall-Metro Times (Detroit, MI) Murray disappears into his role as FDR, blending Lothario charm with professorial cool. Matthew Odam-Austin American-Statesman When Murray's around, he's the only hot dog in the room. Marjorie Baumgarten-Austin Chronicle | |
