Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Made with fluid skill and a passion for storytelling, its tale of how the Vietnam War and American society affect a black Marine remains accessible while confounding expectations.
– Kenneth Turan,
Los Angeles Times,
13 Feb 2001
rotten:
What emerges is an uneasy blend of didacticism and juiced-up bloodletting (the brothers don't know when to stop with the exploding squibs) that bury the film's message and its good intentions.
– Peter Travers,
Rolling Stone,
12 May 2001
rotten:
It's an overly ambitious effort that strains to work as a coming-of-age drama, a 1960s period piece and a searing comment on the way African American GIs went largely unappreciated for their war efforts.
– Peter Stack,
San Francisco Chronicle,
18 Jun 2002
rotten:
Like those overreaching sophomore term papers we can all laugh at now, this disappointing film may free the Hughes brothers to move on to fresher, more inspired work.
– Caryn James,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
Dead Presidents may eventually box itself into a narrative dead end, but its muscular engagement of weighty themes and explosive situations makes it a powerful drama.
