Definately one of my new favorite films and the solid performance by Frank Langella says it all. Going from Dracula to Nixon is quite a long hard career and this performance in my opinion topped all his other works. The movie was engaging and interesting. Not everyone can take an interest in political science like Frost/Nixon but for those who can this is one not to be missed...

it is simply the work of Langella that reaches out and grabs you by the neck and says âÂÂHey! This is what acting is all about!â His portrayal of the disgraced Ex-President, looking for redemption, seeking something he cannot quite grasp, is one of the greatest performances I have ever seen on the big screen. I was captivated by his movements and even more so his larger-than-life presence. With each cut to him exiting a vehicle, or psyching himself up with a quick jog to music, I found myself feeling both sympathy and pity for this man. I will not give out more details though it is widely known how the interviews turned out. I am simply going to say that this is an absolute must see film and has quickly bolted to my top movie of 2008. http://www.he

Somebody needs to award Michael Sheen w/an Oscar nom one of these days. He was great as Tony Blair in The Queen and now again as David Frost in Frost/Nixon. He seems to be expert at playing the suave smart Brit who gets out of jams.

While Frank Langella was excellent & definitely Oscar worthy, I found this informative & interesting but very slow. I understand that it was not possible to cut from it as it was all pertinent information to the story line, but my husband slept most of the way thru it & I found my mind & eyes wandering all over the theater. While I see the attraction to this film & understand the hype for Oscar, Slumdog was 200% better than this was & definitely deserves the Oscar over Frost/Nixon

Fantastic flick. Acting on the part of Langella is oscar worthy. I expected more of a documentary but was hooked from the start and captivated until the dramatic ending. Bravo.

Great movie, much more enthralling than you might expect. Great performances all around, especially from Frank Langella. Nixon's a hard character to play without succumbing to caricature, but he was realistic and convincing throughout, almost hauntingly so. This movie shows that you don't need a lot of special effects or anything like that to stay interesting. Sometimes really good acting is all it takes.

An abolutely incredible movie and acting by the Main Characters! (Much better, than the wrestler and Mickey Rourkes Performance)

Excellent performance by all major characters. Would like to see an recent interview of Frost to see what is true and what was made up for movie.

A true Masterpiece. Frank Langella must have lost his soul by bringing us Nixon. His acting is unbelieveable--it brought forth unexpected tears. The end will touch you like no other. Overall, there maybe a better understanding that our presidents are merely men who make decisions from their heart, from their head, from their point of view.
