Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Movies are, after all, about fakery; so is the story of Norville's rise and fall and redemption.
Rotten: Nearly everything in the Coen brothers' latest and biggest film seems like a wizardly but artificial synthesis, leaving a hole in the middle where some emotion and humanity should be.
Rotten: A visually arresting but emotionally uninvolving dark comedy.
Fresh: A wickedly funny and incisive lampoon of big business.

Hudsucker Proxy
This movie is definitely hilarious! and if you are a Paul Newman and Tim Robbins fan it is a must see!!!
If you like old screwball comedies, you'll love this one
This movie is a throwback to the comedies of the fifties. I love the casting, everyone is wonderful. Robbins is great as a naive rube who has a plan. Jason-Leigh was great and reminded me of Katherine Hepburn. Paul Newman is superb as a heartless businessman. The script is great. A lot of great lines in the movie. Take a chance, rent it and enjoy.
AMAZING
One of the best movies ever, definitely on my top 20 list. A must see.
