    New York Post | Lou Lumenick

    This unlikely micro-budgeted project is written and directed by Marianna Palka, who also plays the female lead. The guy is portrayed by her real-life boyfriend, Jason Ritter (son of the late John). Their performances are quite remarkable and their chemistry is palpable, even if Good Dick is primarily intended for more adventurous moviegoers. Read full review

    The Onion A.V. Club | Noel Murray

    Mainly, Good Dick just proves that TV actors like Ritter make good indie-film hires, because they'll go along with whatever ridiculous nonsense a novice filmmaker concocts. Read full review

    San Francisco Chronicle | Ruthe Stein

    It is crystal clear who screwed up this tortuously slow-moving romantic drama. Read full review
