Leave your thoughts about The Great Buck Howard.
| NewsBlazeKam WilliamsA sleeper that can't miss with the indie art house crowd. |
| Reeling ReviewsLaura CliffordCentered by a blissfully egotistical performance by John Malkovich, arrestingly attired by costume designer Johnetta Boone ("The Notebook"), "The Great Buck Howard" is a sweet, nostalgic film. |
| St. Louis Post-DispatchJoe WilliamsThe Great Buck Howard is cheekily observant about celebrity self-importance while still conveying Buck's commitment to entertaining regular folks. |
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfThe film is fun to watch, easy on the frontal lobe, and features John Malkovich in a lively performance that's both masterfully impish and authentically mysterious. |
| Hollywood & FineMarshall FineWhat gives The Great Buck Howard its humor and warmth is the way Buck is written and played...Malkovich's performance is a captivating bit of sleight of hand. |
| Palo Alto WeeklyJeanne AufmuthI wish there were more movies like Buck Howard; simply effortless and earnest. |
| Arkansas Democrat-GazettePhilip Martin...a charming, pleasantly diverting movie that is hard to dislike. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongMalkovich keeps Buck an enigma -- part fool, part unheralded genius -- and if the film moves in expected ways it also hits some subtle grace notes. |
| I.E. WeeklyAmy NicholsonTo their credit, Malkovich and McGinly never make sentimentality easy--when Buck's career starts picking up, the first thing he does is get a facelift. |
| FilmsInReview.comVictoria AlexanderHighly entertaining and clever. Malkovich dominates every scene. |
