Leave your thoughts about Dealin' with Idiots.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperThe film is a consistently funny gem with moments of inspired lunacy. |
| IndiewireEric KohnDealin' With Idiots is powered by a cast of terrific character actors. |
| Arizona RepublicKerry Lengel"Idiots” definitely isn’t for everyone, but its wry sensibility is several degrees more original than your average Hollywood knee-slapper. |
| The DissolveNathan RabinDealin’ With Idiots is at its strongest when it forgets about plot and character development altogether (which is most of the time) and gives itself over to the laid-back pleasure of improvisation among veteran professionals finding and exploring a good groove together. |
| McClatchy-Tribune News ServiceRoger MooreGarlin doesn’t discover anything new about this well-documented phenomenon. But rounding up his (under-employed) comic pals and turning them loose on Little League is funny enough by itself. |
| RogerEbert.comHank SartinMore disappointing, the performances just aren't quite as funny and focused as they should be. Willard and Kind are both very funny guys when they are used right, but they both seem a bit at sea here, and their characters never come into sharp focus. |
| The New York TimesAndy WebsterMr. Garlin has such a soft touch that at times the film feels feather-light, almost devoid of emotional traction. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe problem is, despite the fact that the cast is filled with a gallery of veteran comic performers, few of the characters they portray are very interesting. |
| New York PostFarran Smith NehmeThe movie was largely improvised, which lends itself more to scenes than a feature-length film. |
| Slant MagazineNick McCarthyThe film is reduced to a series of unfunny mockery laid out so Garlin can display his trademark deadpan reaction. |
