(1 - 29) of 29 OFCS Rating: 96% Fresh Page   1   4/5 "Line after line proves infinitely quotable... suggesting cult status as well as critical acclaim beckons."   Eye for Film   Amber Wilkinson "Showing how politicians, in all their petty ambition and narrow self-interest, can be every bit as dangerous as Weapons of Mass Destruction, this is Dr Strangelove for the post-9/11 era."   musicOMH.com   Anton Bitel 4/5 "Uproarious, bitter, and ever so slightly twisted, In the Loop revives our hope in art infiltrating and exposing the hypocrisies of life."   PopMatters   Bill Gibron A- "An acidic force of nature, confident with brutal exchanges of opinion, yet retains a cutting satirical curve that buttresses the film's undeniable pull toward outright silliness."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf 8/10 "One of the funniest and most quotable films likely to hit cinemas this year."   DVDTown.com   Christopher Long A "...the funniest and smartest political comedy to come along in ages"   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey 85/100 "Vicious. Unrelenting. Brilliant. See it!"   Cinemania   Dan Jardine 5/5 "Whereas several recent films like the pompous 'Lions for Lambs' presented the current war in a didactically solemn tone, Iannucci has more to say by simply playing the crisis for laughs."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger B "A clever work of realistic fiction."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz A "The sharpest, funniest political satire in years."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 3.5/4 "Can you remember the last time you saw a topical political satire with rapid-fire obscenity (morally and literally) and character exchanges that would rival the best of the screwball era?"   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress B- "Waspish political satire is rare enough today that even a middling specimen is welcome."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 67/100 "A biting political satire that tackles rising anti-war sentiments around the globe."   Film and Felt   Gabe Leibowitz "Anglo and American comic actors are meeting somewhere in the middle, finally catching up with their country's politicians who have been collaborating, troublesomely, for years."   The L Magazine   Henry Stewart A- ""Thick of It" veteran Peter Capaldi has the long-limbed, flapjack body language of John Cleese and dizzying delivery. His is a great comic performance..."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 8/10 "The plot of this film is impenetrable but the dialog is hilarious and comes a staccato pace. This is a comedy of political backbiting, in-fighting, and out-fighting."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper "It's as if Jane Austen and Monty Python collaborated on an episode of The West Wing..."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson B+ "A razor-sharp farce that imparts insights from all directions."   Lessons of Darkness   Nick Schager "One of the funniest films of the year and the most incisive piece of cinematic political satire to come along since Joe Dante's "Homecoming.""   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 4.5/5 "It's a stroke of genius to play a tense political thriller as if it's a raucous satire. Slicing straight through any over-seriousness, this film keeps us laughing loudly as it tells a story that's probably far truer than we'd like to believe."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline B+ "keeps the story and humor moving at a breakneck pace that never bores and always amuses"   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 8/10 "The worse politics gets for the constituency the better it gets for the comedians. A political roast of unprecedented accuracy and intensity and a comedic dream."   Monsters and Critics   Ron Wilkinson 9/10 "...gives equal time to our brethren across the Atlantic who are no less status-obsessed and have much more impressive collections of expletives..."   Playback:stl   Sarah Boslaugh "... a simultaneously hilariously and terrifyingly convincing model of how modern statesmanship must work."   Seanax.com   Sean Axmaker 3/4 "One of the year's most intelligent (scripts), unifying political intrigue and backroom muckraking with stinging, pop-culture putdowns."   Charlotte Weekly   Sean O'Connell 6/10 "While the cynical concept is amusing, the actors' accents are often so undecipherable that much of the dialogue emerges as unintelligible unless you're attuned to Brit-speak - and profanity reigns."   SSG Syndicate   Susan Granger 10/10 "As fine and hilarious a political comedy as any we've had in a generation."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton "Click here to see review"   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf "Trailer and preview"   Movies for the Masses   Joseph Proimakis  (1 - 29) of 29 OFCS Rating: 96% Fresh Page   1
