Leave your thoughts about Don Verdean.
| Nuke the FridgeFred TopelFans of Napoleon Dynamite will still recognize a sort of awkward whimsy in Don Verdean, but if that style was too niche for some audiences, Don Verdean puts more emphasis on making as many jokes as possible. |
| The Film StageJack GirouxDon Verdean comes close at times to make this a comeback for Hess, but it's stopped short by some flat gags, an uninspiring arc, and a mostly sluggish pace. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Josh TerryDon Verdean probably won't replace Napoleon Dynamite on the list of cinematic accomplishments for Team Hess, but it's a worthy entry to a unique portfolio. |
| AV ClubMike D'AngeloBoth Rockwell and Clement are back for the latest Hess production, Don Verdean, which can’t even work up enough comic energy to be considered bad. |
| Arizona RepublicKerry LengelIt’s an enjoyable ride, but probably not one you need to take twice. |
| Christianity TodayAlissa WilkinsonDon Verdean is a pleasingly entertaining, sometimes hilarious, quietly satirical take on what makes us tick as a subculture. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfParts of "Don Verdean" are executed with real imagination. The rest of it falls asleep. |
| Cinemalogue.comTodd JorgensonThere are some scattered laughs, but considering its broad targets, the film is too detached from reality to consistently hit the mark. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenWhile the corrupt Indiana Jones conceit certainly held promise, the Hesses fail to move it much further beyond that "what if" premise, taking weak, obvious potshots at its fundamentalist target. |
| Under the RadarAustin TrunickIf you're a fan of the cast members, Don Verdean is worth seeking out, even with its slow second half. |
