Leave your thoughts about Hey! Is Dee Dee Home?.
| Seattle TimesTed FryIt's a starkly passionate memoir of drugs and rock 'n' roll (sex seemed to be mostly an inconvenience) that's delivered with articulate poignancy by one who makes no apologies but has many regrets. |
| The New York TimesDave KehrA rueful, reflective companion piece to "Born to Lose." |
| New York PostMegan LehmannEssentially an hour-long monologue, but this talking head is so engaging that you can't blame director Lech Kowalski's camera for not wanting to stray from the late Dee Dee Ramone's party-ravaged face. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanThe result, while slight, is a poignant portrait of one of New York's all-star outlaws. |
| Village VoiceLaura SinagraOn a dark set, between strums and archival clips, this master raconteur exudes his own brand of obnoxious charm, the kind that can only be possessed, never imitated. |
| TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghSpare, rough around the edges and unsentimentally melancholy. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe film ultimately fails to satisfy because of the limitations of both the format and subject. |
