What About Bob? Ratings & Reviews
The Hollywood Reporter
Duane Byrge
Murray and Dreyfuss play off each other to their maximum advantage: Murray does what he does best, to shine-on and ultimately destroy authority figures, while Dreyfuss' portrayal of the runty doctor is splendidly Napoleonic.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...an affable endeavor that isn't quite the comedy classic one might've anticipated.
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
Essentially a two-man comedy riff, of the sort we see less and less at the movies.
Common Sense Media
Joyce Slaton
Appealingly silly romp for kids and adults.
TIME Magazine
Richard Schickel
Murray, with his curious blend of pathos and aggressiveness, is terrific, and so is an acutely uptight Dreyfuss, never once copping a plea for our sympathy.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
This cruel but effective black comedy violates credibility at almost every turn, but the concept itself is so strong hat it winds up working pretty well anyway.
TV Guide
A modern-day comedy in the grand tradition of the best screwball comedies of the late 1930s and early 40s.
Variety
Bill Murray finds a real showcase for his oft-shackled talent in this manic comedy.
Capital Times (Madison, WI)
Rob Thomas
Murray nicely shelves his wise-guy persona in a winning comedy.
FulvueDrive-in.com
Chuck O'Leary
A delightful annoying-person comedy made even more amusing by the fact that Murray and Dreyfuss couldn't stand one another in real life.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Except for the last half hour, one of the best comedies of the 90's.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
Somehow, Mr. Dreyfuss maintains his sound comic timing even when Frank Oz's antic direction calls for hand-waving hysteria.
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
This is an amiable comedy if there ever was one. That's no criticism: if all innocuous comedies were as satisfying as What About Bob? you wouldn't always feels the need for some subversive humor.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
Above all else, What About Bob? addresses the way many a patient feels when his psychiatrist has the nerve to go away without giving a thought to his problems. Perhaps it is just one desperate cosmic cry for help. Then again, maybe it's a threat.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
With his twisted lower lip, doleful eyes and trademark deadpan, [Murray] exudes an awkward -- and funny -- vulnerability.
