Frost / Nixon User Reviews

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.

Amazing! One of the best movies I've ever seen. It does an excellent job in showing what goes on behind closed doors.

There were moments when I was riveted, hanging onto every word, every masterful pause. Sheen and Langella were both amazing in their roles. Langella has always been an incredible actor (I've admired him since seeing his Dracula at the Martin Beck Theatre in 1977). But there were times during this movie that he truly became Nixon, just as Landau became Lugosi in "Ed Wood." I highly recommend this film.

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...

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
