Our Nixon Ratings & Reviews
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
A capably done account of a presidential career that was wrecked by a crime that was unnecessary.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
The result is maudlin beyond belief, especially Nixon's farewell to the aides he's in the process of firing, but other moments simply register as shockingly out of touch.
The New Yorker
David Denby
[A] shrewdly edited collection of news footage and "home movies" taken by members of the Nixon White House staff ...
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
We get to see film of daughter Tricia's wedding (her father is a surprisingly agile ballroom dancer) and other oddities.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
Often plays like a mortifying companion to the Nixon-period sitcom "The Wonder Years."
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
There has never been an uninteresting angle on Richard Nixon - the man was too twisted - but Penny Lane's documentary sees him from several especially compelling new vantages.
New York Daily News
Jordan Hoffman
[S]hows the precise moment when new image technology would alter power.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Mundane movies of events like the president's daughter's wedding and his groundbreaking trip to China are juxtaposed with Nixon's rants about his enemies and the "homosexuals" he believed were leading the US into decline.
AV Club
A.A. Dowd
The results are akin to seeing the Nixon presidency through the eyes of his top aides; it's as much a portrait of innocence lost as a behind-closed-doors expos.
Village Voice
Stephanie Zacharek
More entertaining curio than revelatory document.
The Hollywood Reporter
Neil Young
Efficient found-footage collage is more evocative than revelatory.
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
Our Nixon is a love song to a man who knew victories but just couldn't win.
New York Daily News
David Hinckley
It just feels redundant. Perhaps little or nothing on the home movies lent itself to a richer portrait.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
The retrieved home movie footage creates a lambent prism through which the '70s seem like a simpler time. It also makes Our Nixon a uniquely dynamic time capsule.
New York Times
Alessandra Stanley
After two hours, Nixon remains a riveting enigma.
Variety
Variety Staff
A brisk, eye-opening documentary about the Nixon White House, this triumph of editing is composed of homemovies, accompanied by later TV interviews and priceless audio from the secret tapes, making it a must-see for anyone interested in Americana.
Wall Street Journal
Dorothy Rabinowitz
This highly personal view of the Nixon years is, for obvious reasons, a sad and wrenching one-a film that is nonetheless filled with spirit, humor and a bountiful sense of irony.
Los Angeles Times
It's a haunting, thoroughly evocative ride.
The Playlist
Katie Walsh
While Our Nixon is not trying to exonerate or prove anything other than what has already happened, it is trying to understand this other side of the Nixon administration...but one of a complicated man...
Slant Magazine
Tomas Hachard
The videos fail in their promise of revealing intimate moments, but the doc highlights how close Nixon, Haldeman, Ehrlichman, and Chapin were in other ways.
