San Francisco Chronicle -
Fascinating in its depiction of presidential leadership in action.

New York Daily News -
An excellent movie about a real-life nail-biter, forcefully acted, true to its period and directed with clarity.

|
USA Today -
Once this 2 1/4-hour slow-starter finally finds its rhythm, we're reminded of how gripping policy give-and-take around a long rectangular table can be.

Time -
The players don't particularly look like their historical models, but they make us feel their life-threatening pain and puzzlement.

|
L.A. Weekly -
A refreshing breakaway from both idolatry and cynicism.
