Leave your thoughts about Drop Dead Fred.
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanAs the naughty ghost pal of Phoebe Cates, an obnoxious British actor named Rik Mayall is like Michael Keaton’s Beetlejuice without the juice. In Drop Dead Fred, all he does is smash and spill things and say many, many potty words. |
| Orlando SentinelJay BoyarI had fun watching Drop Dead Fred, but I want to take special care not to raise expectations unrealistically by overpraising it. The 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. |
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfAn appallingly unpleasant, unfunny, and deeply disturbed motion picture. It's an ear-splitting slapstick comedy for an unknown audience, unifying parents and kids in discomfort with its aggressive movement. |
| Common Sense MediaBrian CostelloSlapstick '90s comedy is filled with crass humor. |
| VarietyVariety StaffDirector Ate De Jong has captured the silliness of childhood with the hyperactive title character but too often drills jokes deep into the pavement, until even children will have long stopped laughing. |
| Seattle TimesJohn HartlWhether or not you're a fan of De Jong's earlier work, Drop Dead Fred is clearly an extension of it. There's even a touch of Peter Pan and Wendy in the relationship between Mayall and Cates ("He's like my best friend, and yet I'm scared to death of him"), who has a ball with the role. |
| South Florida Sun-SentinelCandice RussellA charmless, irritating psychological fantasy that can`t decide whether to aim at kids or adults. |
| Philadelphia InquirerSteven ReaThe episodic flashbacks are cast in an unfunny Freudian light -- domineering mother, helpless hubby, the tragically withdrawn child. What a laugh riot! |
| Empire MagazineAngie ErrigoThere is scarcely a laugh to be had unless you are six years old or immoderately fond of such wheezes as depositing dog poop on a white carpet. |
| Philadelphia Daily NewsGary ThompsonDrop Dead Fred wants to be an offbeat cross between "Harvey" and "Beetlejuice," but it is more like a shrill, interminable episode of "I Dream of Jeannie." |
