Movie Reviews

USA Today - 10/10 by Mike ClarkFrancis Coppola's stylish and heartfelt tribute to the innovative automobile designer Preston Thomas Tucker turns out to be one of his most personal and successful movies.
DVDLaser - 10/10 by Douglas Pratta movie for people who love World's Fairs
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 9/10 by Mark R. LeeperFrancis Ford Coppola and Lucasfilm in top form bring to the screen the story of automotive legend Preston Tucker. The film is a tribute to American creativity and a lament about a system that wastes genius.
KFOR Channel 4 News - 9/10 by Blake DavisOne of Francis Ford Coppola's great movies that slipped through the cracks in the late 80's.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Desson ThomsonNobody does it better: Pristine images glide past you with the just-waxed brilliance of an assembly line of new Tuckers.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Sheila BensonTucker represents the sunniest imaginable telling of an at least partly tragic episode in recent history.
Battleship Pretension - 8/10 by David BaxTucker, the character, embellishes and enchants with his mile a minute mouth (hilarious blowing past malapropisms like opening "Aunt Dora's box") while Tucker, the film, does the same in its rose-colored view of an imaginary heyday of U.S. manufacturing.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Rita KempleyTucker came up with a classic, but poor Coppola has turned a great American tragedy into a gas-guzzling human comedy.
FanboyNation.com - 8/10 by Sean MulvihillTucker: The Man and His Dream is an all-American story. It's just not the one that everyone wants to hear.
Time - 8/10 by Richard SchickelThe result is a film consistent narratively, confident stylistically and abounce with the quaint quality that animated both the hero and his times, something we used to call pep.
