Critics Reviews

Michael Wilmington Los Angeles Times Drop Dead Fred is an erratic stab at making madness sensible, a slapstick nightmare that goes too sane, that tries too hard to be both good and rotten. May 5, 2014 Full Review Gene Siskel Chicago Tribune This is easily one of the worst films I've ever seen. Rated: 0/4 May 5, 2014 Full Review Steven Rea Philadelphia Inquirer The episodic flashbacks are cast in an unfunny Freudian light -- domineering mother, helpless hubby, the tragically withdrawn child. What a laugh riot! Rated: 1.5/4 May 5, 2014 Full Review Tony Black Cultural Conversation The crucial problem of course is that for a comedy, it's not really very funny. Rated: 2/5 Feb 16, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Fred is a particularly crass, unappealing imaginary friend, going out of his way to stir up trouble more than engaging in fun activities. Rated: 5/10 Sep 11, 2020 Full Review Jorge Loser Espinof A fantastic cult comedy. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 11, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Reviews

Ric K This film is like marmite, you either love it or hate it. To take in consideration it was made in 1991, watching it back today I personally love this film... The late Rik Mayall was a very talented wacky actor.

We all need a little drop dead Fred in our lives. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/26/23 Full Review Emily R I have loved this movie since I was a child. Brings back memories of happier times. Yes it has a certain cheese factor. Who really cares? All the people who give this one star make me think of the yelpers in the South Park episode You're Not Yelping.
