Movie Reviews

  • [Maya Forbes'] film is spry, frequently hilarious, and at its very best dark-verging-on-deranged. It's also unexpectedly gentle
    4 of 5 by Andy Crump [Paste Magazine ]
  • despite a strong lead performance from Jack Black, "The Polka King" is more irksome than comical
    Review rate : C- by Matt Goldberg [Collider ]
  • an ingratiating comedy based on an improbable true story... Featuring Black's most eccentric true-life character yet, "The Polka King" amply plays to its star's strengths, yielding a hilariously tough-to-believe biopic
    by Dennis Harvey [Variety ]
  • above all else, this movie is so well-cast that the laugh line makes perfect sense coming from [Jack] Black
    Review rate : C+ by Andy Crump [AV Club ]
  • a big, broad treatment of an off-kilter true crime story
    by John DeFoe [The Hollywood Reporter ]
