PRO REVIEWS
----------------------------------------
"Bill Murray as FDR? It takes a few minutes to get used to, but once he settles into the role of the 32nd president, the idiosyncratic comic actor does a wonderfully jaunty job of it..." (Todd McCarthy: The Hollywood Reporter) ----------------------------------------
"Roosevelt was one of the towering figures of the 20th century, but he and his accomplishments scarcely register in this amorphous, bafflingly aimless movie" (Manohla Dargis: The New York Times) ----------------------------------------
"A small film that, for all its considerable charm, miniaturizes its hero in the process of humanizing him" (Joe Morgenstern: The Wall Street Journal) ----------------------------------------
"The music's the best thing ... But it isn't enough to lift this middlebrow, middleweight and middling project ... above its misjudgments and limitations. Rating: **1/2 (out of 4)" (Michael Phillips: Chicago Tribune) ----------------------------------------
"The actors can't perform miracles. Hot dogs are served in the final scene, but trust me, 'Hyde Park on Hudson' is no picnic. Rating: ** (out of 4)" (Peter Travers: Rolling Stone) ----------------------------------------
"Roger Michell's movie is, pretty consistently, dreadful" (Richard Corliss: Time) ----------------------------------------
