Leave your thoughts about Dear Dictator.
| ReelTalk Movie ReviewsBetty Jo TuckerThe film's premise seems loaded with comic possibilities, but silly scenes overwhelm the story. Plus, Michael Caine is dreadfully miscast. |
| RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsThe just-shy-of-great teen comedy Dear Dictator is the rare high-concept coming-of-age story with enough warmth and smart-ass charm to (hopefully!) make it accessible for a fairly wide cross-section of moviegoers. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJustin LowePlayful, irreverent and unafraid to be politically incorrect, the pair script with assurance and direct with stylish understatement, pairing character and physical comedy to entertaining effect. |
| Flickering MythShaun MunroA fun, breezy 90-minute sit starring actors who certainly aren't looking down on the material as they so easily could have. |
| SSG SyndicateSusan GrangerWhile Michael Caine is always fun to watch, unfortunately, the pacing/editing is not on a par with the writing. The satire should have been sharper and more subversive. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreIf the filmmakers were as ballsy in scripting it as they had in asking Michael Caine to co-star in it, they’d have had something. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyPleasant enough to watch, even innocuous, Dear Dictator is something that gets worse the more you think about it. |
| JoBlo's Movie EmporiumChris BumbrayWorth watching for Michael Caine's performance. |
| Village VoiceTatiana CraineAlthough the filmmakers name-check and appear to draw inspiration from Mean Girls, they’ve missed the mark on truly biting satire, leaving Dear Dictator toothless and silly. |
| Slant MagazineWes GreeneThe potential comic absurdities of the premise are squandered as soon as the film settles into a tepid coming-of-age tale. |
