Summary: The Best Movie of All Time
Review: This was a great movie. It was sooooooo funny. I love Kirsten Dunst and she was great. Al the characters were great. Some people have trouble seeing what age group should see this. I think it's good for all ages. If you know about watergate it makes the movie better. I am only 11 years old and I loved this movie. If you're an adult than this movie is still funny. Betsy and Arlene remind me of myself. If you get this movie, I garuntee you'll love it.

Summary: Onje of the best DVD's
Review: As far as movie's go and really great DVD's loaded with extra's this one has it all. A awesome movie i really liked(i wish i had seen it in theater's)a funny movie about the 70's bell bottoms etc, Kristen Dunst and Dave Foley are really awesome in this movie. Although the commentary is insightfull and insteresting i wish the director would have told more background on the actor's, for example being a huge Dave Foley fan it was breifly stated that when Dave Foley filmed all his scenes was the day his best freind Phil Hartman was killed, and was hard for him to film his scenes. Being the huge newsradio fan i wished he would have elaborated on this more. Also this movie's soundtrack is one of the best ever heard! the DVD has a music only track making this a must buy DVD!

Summary: Very Funny, But You Need to Know About Watergate Already
Review: I loved this film! I took it over to my folk's and my dad loved it too. It is silly good fun. However, most of the best jokes assume you already know a lot of trivia about Nixon's Watergate scandal. If you need to be brought up to speed on the events that led to Nixon's resignation, the movie "All The President's Men" can help. The taped door, the erased tape, the CREEP list... it's all there. There's another aspect of the film that I didn't become aware of until the second viewing -- the "coming of age" story of the two 15-year-olds. Even though they remain ditzy throughout, there is a definite maturation that progresses through to the end of the movie. Their self-awareness steadily grows. For example, consider the final shot of them in the credits ("Dancing Queen")... I wanted to give it five stars to counter all the reviews from people who didn't make the connections between the real events and how they were portrayed in this movie, but honestly, the movie is only a "4". A good, rollicking, clever "4". Highly recommended.

Summary: Knee slapping funny
Review: One of the funniest movies of 1999. In fact, one of the funniest movies period. I waited to see this on video, thinking it was just another teen girlie movie--boy was I wrong! Events in this movie run parallel to "All The President's Men". In fact it would probably help if you saw APM before watching this. The cast is superb--I can't recall who plays Henry Kissinger in this but he made me shoot milk through my nose--It's that funny. I'm buying the DVD of This and "All The President's Men" and inviting my friends over.

Summary: Dick Rocks
Review: In a surprise, Kirsten Dunst and Michelle Williams convincingly take us through a comedic journey of Nixon's Watergate White House. With exceptional performances by Dan Hedaya (Nixon) and Bruce McCullough and Will Farrell (as a bumbling Bernstein and Woodward, respectively), "Dick" does a wonderful job of making light of our greatest presidential scandal. Fans of Michelle Williams from "Dawson's Creek" may be disappointed, althoug there is a love story here. Michelle Williams plays an extremely convincing teenager of the 70s while Dunst continues to impress in smaller movies (see also "Drop Dead Gorgeous"). The best way to enjoy this movie is to brush up on your Nixon-ology. Watch "All the President's Men" or stop by the library, THEN enjoy the buffonary of a Nixon White House trying to recover from a botched robbery and a failed cover-up. You will never think of "Deep Throat" again without bringing a smile to your face.

Summary: This has cult hit written all over it.
Review: I feel for those who had the unenviable job of marketing this movie. Who do you aim it at? Teens, most of whom know nothing about Nixon and Watergate, or adults, who will dismiss it as being another obnoxious, dumb teen comedy? Hence the box office failure. But what true hidden gem this film is! The writers have managed to put elements into this film that will be able to please the entire spectrum of viewers and knowledge of the Watergate scandal is not at all required to enjoy this hilarious film, but if you happen to have a grasp on it's history, your enjoyment will increase tenfold. The performances of everyone involved are top-notch with special notice going to Dan Hedaya (Nixon dead-on)and Michelle Williams (watch her shy expressions and mannerisms as she develops her crush on Nixon. Priceless!). Many, many scenes left me laughing hysterically (the beach dream scene, Haldeman's interrogation of the girls, Hello Dolly meets Breshnev, Bernstein hovering over Woodward at the Post). Add great music, costumes, sets and a fitting ending, and you've got a great movie experience. Don't miss it! (And for a treat watch this as a double bill with ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN!). If you get the DVD you're in for more of a treat with a hilarious blooper outtake reel (Nixon & Kissinger praying on the Oval Office floor ("Do you want a hug?"), a music-only track, a director & producer commentary track, making-of-featurette and a deleted scene. This is a must-have!

Summary: Great music and a FUNNY movie
Review: Great Music, Absolutely wonderful character acting, superb costumes, and a FUNNY story-line make this a must see. The actors that played all the President's men have really captured the essence of their characters (Henry K. singing "Hello Dolly" and commenting on being the only member of the administration who ever takes responsibility! ). Even though I hate teen-movies, this one had me laughing from the very start until the end of the superb extra features (on the DVD). I must admit that some of it was funny because I am very familar with the real events and characters but even those who are not were laughing throughout the movie. A keeper - buy it - I rented it and am buying it now.

Summary: This is for Nixon bashers and junior high girls
Review: This movie explains the end of the Nixon presidency via two junior high girls. If you're adult, you'll probably find this to be as silly as it is improbable. If you're a young girl, you'll probably notice all of the neat 70's styles, but lose most of the story line (i.e. how many 10-12 are aware of the Nixon stories, cast, etc...). The music was great; the acting wasn't; the scenes were uneventful an unexplained (i.e. all of a sudden the two main characters are in private sections of the white house). ...for renters only...

Summary: Interesting satire, but about 25 years too late
Review: Very mildly amusing political satire that would have been much funnier about 25 years ago. Standout performance by the actor playing Nixon. Hash brownie humor is pretty lame. This film is just not topical. Would have been better right after the Watergate scandal broke. If you STILL perceive Nixon as an icon of 'the establishment', then you might like it. Might as well make a film lambasting Ike Eisenhower - i'm sure it would get the same amount of belly-laughs - none.
