Critic Reviews

Jamie Tipps

In the vast wasteland of romantic comedies, this lovely film defies the tired genre. Read full review

Carina Chocano

Good Dick carries its messed-up, highly improbable premise so lightly and gracefully that it ultimately comes off as a sweet, plausible and curiously grounded love story -- and touchingly old-fashioned. Read full review

Lou Lumenick

This unlikely micro-budgeted project is written and directed by Marianna Palka, who also plays the female lead. The guy is portrayed by her real-life boyfriend, Jason Ritter (son of the late John). Their performances are quite remarkable and their chemistry is palpable, even if Good Dick is primarily intended for more adventurous moviegoers. Read full review

Jeannette Catsoulis

Good Dick surmounts its indie-movie quirkiness with exceptional acting and a sincere belief in the salvation of its wounded characters. Read full review

James Greenberg

Alternately compelling and dramatically limp, the film scores points for exploring unfamiliar territory but lacks the emotional depth to make some very strange behavior believable. Read full review

Todd McCarthy

An annoying example of self-therapy posing as art. Read full review

Ruthe Stein

It is crystal clear who screwed up this tortuously slow-moving romantic drama. Read full review

A very bizarre take on romantic dramedy with some genuinely great depth and emotion to it. Don't let the awful title deter you from watching this intriguing look at unconventional love and the lengths people go to get it. (no pun intended)
