Bobby Ratings & Reviews
Observer
Andrew Sarris
For all his good intentions, Mr. Estevez has reduced history to a bad melodrama in which nothing much happens until a crazed assassin (of whom we catch only a fleeting prior glimpse) supposedly destroys the last great hope of a liberal renaissance.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Ham-handed and TV-movie flat, it states the obvious, then states it again and again and again.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Ultimately rises above its inadequacies; it's an earnest tribute to a time gone by, and to a symbol of hope.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
A compelling film of tender moral decency that boasts a number of moments not to be shrugged off.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
So keenly felt and so deeply imagined I couldn't help but be moved, even grateful for its bleeding-heart nostalgia -- which winds up feeling rather up-to-date.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Ambitious, uneven and deeply affecting drama.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
With one film, Estevez has transformed himself from a middle-aged joke into a youthful auteur who has made something beautiful, something he can be proud of, one of the best films of 2006.
Houston Chronicle
Bruce Westbrook
With so much brandishing of name actors in small roles, Bobby feels like a '70s disaster flick, with the disaster in the final minutes. While waiting, viewers must content themselves with playing spot-the-star.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
Always engaging, rarely revelatory, Bobby earns credit for its convictions and its ability to dramatize those convictions in the context of a man who embodied them.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
What little plot Bobby has is overshadowed by the star spotting.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
An earnest and altogether silly piece of conjectural melodrama.
Detroit News
Tom Long
The most interesting person in this maze of a movie is by far the title character. And his absence leaves an inescapable void.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
If Bobby causes us to stop and compare what might have been to the leadership we currently have, one suspects Estevez would not mind at all.
Chicago Tribune
Jessica Reaves
A daring, messy and strangely rewarding patchwork that's straining at the seams.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
A preachy, liberal-courting slog.
Newsweek
David Ansen
All the actors get their Big Moments, but verisimilitude goes out the window.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
There are important movies and engrossing movies, but it's not often that both terms apply to the same movie. Bobby, which opens Thursday, is a fictionalized account of the day Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated, and it's one of the exceptions.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Despite the clunkiness, Estevez's commitment to his father's generation's idealism (and its murder) commands respect.
The New Yorker
David Denby
Estevez has made a vague gesture at a large, metaphoric structure without having the dramatic means to achieve it.
