Hyde Park on Hudson | Ratings & Reviews

"An unseemly look at the private life of one of America's most revered commanders-in-chief."

VarietyVariety

"More a "King's Speech" footnote than a sequel, Park only flies when Bill's centre stage. We're curious to see how it fares against "Lincoln," the award season's other presidential hopeful."

Total FilmTotal Film

"Hyde Park could have been fawningly ponderous; that it's merely an airy trifle puts it a cut above the usual Oscar bait."

Time OutTime Out

"Roosevelt was one of the towering figures of the 20th century, but he and his accomplishments scarcely register in this amorphous, bafflingly aimless movie."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"The movie insists on an unearned sentimentality and nostalgia about a situation and a period that is never fully evoked or explored."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"This isn't a serious historical film. It plays different instruments than Spielberg's "Lincoln." Murray, who has a wider range than we sometimes realize, finds the human core of this FDR and presents it tenderly."

Roger EbertRoger Ebert

"Though he has competition, especially from the folks playing the visiting royals, Murray is very much the reason to see "Hyde Park.""

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"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."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Disappointing given the talent and situation, dull as ditchwater and historically suspect, another "The King's Speech" it definitely is not. Nice costumes, though."
