Critic Reviews of "Drop Dead Fred"
Los Angeles TimesMay 05, 2014Drop Dead Fred is an erratic stab at making madness sensible, a slapstick nightmare that goes too sane, that tries too hard to be both good and rotten.
Philadelphia InquirerMay 05, 2014The episodic flashbacks are cast in an unfunny Freudian light -- domineering mother, helpless hubby, the tragically withdrawn child. What a laugh riot!
Orlando SentinelMay 05, 2014The movie is no comic masterpiece, but it is consistently amusing in a way that sometimes reminded me of a kiddie picture and at other times of a more sophisticated comedy.
Seattle TimesMay 05, 2014It tries too hard to mimic Beetlejuice, especially in British comic Rik Mayall's frantic performance as the title character -- Mayall is no Michael Keaton -- but it has a whimsical comic energy.
Chicago TribuneMay 05, 2014Drop Dead Fred is a movie for people who like the sound of fingernails on blackboards and the feel of a drill bearing into a bicuspid.
Empire MagazineMay 05, 2014That any of it, however, should suddenly, melodramatically lead to Elizabeth learning to assert herself is, to say the least, unpersuasive.
Philadelphia Daily NewsMay 05, 2014It's rare that a movie so cleverly conceived is so poorly executed.
Baltimore SunMay 05, 2014The film is in desperate need of flow. It plays like a collection of bits, skits that have been thrown together with little eye to continuity.
South Florida Sun-SentinelMay 05, 2014A charmless, irritating psychological fantasy that can`t decide whether to aim at kids or adults.
TV GuideMay 05, 2014Drop Dead Fred is a therapeutic fable for people who believe that by becoming an adult, one inevitably loses the capacity to have fun. But the alternative it suggests is nothing short of horrifying.
