Reverse the Curse Ratings & Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Duchovny the director never bothers to ground his melodrama in something that feels real, missing the target on the period in which it's set and an honest understanding of the people who live and die on the success and failure of their favorite teams.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
Trying to get at some harsh truths ... Reverse the Curse is simply too gimmicky to be frank and honest about any of those subjects...
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
Duchovny's smarts are commendable, theoretically, but the movie falls short of compelling. And for all the novelistic details that he packs in, "Reverse the Curse" moves at the pace of a self-defeating snail.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Even though that ending includes an epilogue we could see coming like a hanging change-up right down the middle, you can't help but choke up...

Christian Toto
Duchovny scores as a dying father, but his film's tone is all over the ballpark.
Epoch Times
Michael Clark
Mr. Duchovny would have served himself better by distancing himself from his own source material and brought in a more seasoned screenwriter to adapt his novel: that whole "fresh eyes on the page" thing.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
It ends up a mushy pile of moods, but, once again, acting is the highlight of the effort.
Paste Magazine
Chloe Walker
A willingness to take emotional risks, alongside the finely-drawn characters and beautiful performances, makes Bucky F*cking Dent a deeply lovely movie.
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Damon Wise
The elevator pitch is a tough one; though it's funny in places, the tone is all over the place.
The SS Ben Hecht
Stephen Silver
A thin premise that nearly rescues itself with a strong ending. Can Red Sox hopelessness still form the basis of a movie, after four World Series wins in the last 20 years?
Solzy at the Movies
Danielle Solzman
Duchovny goes behind the camera to direct his second feature, Bucky F*cking Dent, and it's every bit the home run.
The Cinematic Reel
David Gonzalez
Bucky F*cking Dent is one of Tribeca 2023's finest offerings. It's a film that, like Bucky Dent, will come out of nowhere and hit a home run of tears and cheers in one of the year's most enjoyable entries.
Edge Media Network
Frank J. Avella
David Duchovny's sophomore directorial outing, "Bucky F*cking Dent," scores a triple (that's one base shy of a home run)...a funny, bittersweet (possibly autobiographical?) film...
Critic's Notebook
Sarah Manvel
It's about how sports is a bonding tool between men who otherwise prefer silence and makes no serious political points. In this case, the love of the game is supposed to be enough. And once again, somewhat to everyone's surprise, it is.
The Film Stage
John Fink
After getting off to a shaky start, David Duchovny's second directorial feature Bucky F*cking Dent delivers some hard truths and profound wisdom.
The Playlist
Marshall Shaffer
While Logan Marshall-Green is roughly a decade too old to play his character, he does provide some of the film's few sparks of excitement.
In Review Online
Conor Truax
Reverse the Curse is unfortunately never quite able to strike a careful balance between these tonal poles, and it ends up feeling more like a vandalized hallmark card than a dry comedy earnestly wading through themes of loyalty, failure, and loss.
Film Inquiry
Stephanie Archer
The film does have its issues, but it's the depth of the heart that will ease even the coldest audience member to overlook its faults and enjoy the fantastical journey of reconnection and rediscovery.
IndieWire
Ben Travers
Finds fresh life in its nuanced central relationship, charming period details, and a stirring performance from Duchovny - while eliciting well-earned sobs from anyone who can't help but feel romantic about baseball.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Pretty f*cking good.
