slipshod film: Arizona Daily Stary

superficial gimmick...its ideas... are few and familiar: LA Daily News

It's a stunt more than a movie, and if this is what's passing for intelligent liberal thought in this (or any other) country, we're really in trouble: Slate.com

it may leave Bush critics asking why they just spent $10 and 90 minutes on something that's more controversy than content: Newark Star Ledger

dull fiction: Rolling Stone

a dose of NyQuil: New York Post

The film itself becomes its own worst enemy: Newsday

The best that can be said ...is that it faithfully recreates the tone and rhythm of a second-rate American television program: New York Times

I give nothing away by telling you the president dies. From that point on, the film's most egregious offense is becoming predictable and heavy-handed: Chicago Sun-Times

The flaw in Death of a President... one of dramatic interest: Chicago Tribune

a marvelous feel for the clichés and conventions of TV-news documentary: Salon.com (a positve review)

façade of controversy ...delivering nothing remotely provocative: Metromix. com

NEED I POST MORE?

This movie opens this week for limited screens. I think this is a risky move on leftists part, because it may ignite a blacklash from independent-mind voters as this movie provides a window of what is in leftists' mind.

So what? None of those leftist sycophants are going to vote for anyone to the right of Karl Marx anyway.
