Frost / Nixon reviews

Rolling Stone preview of Frost/Nixon

Rolling Stone has the Fall Movie Previews out and it had this to say about Frost/Nixon

Frost/Nixon brings Peter Morgan's hit play to the screen, where you might not expect much cinematic flash in the sight of two white guys talking. Surprise: Director Ron Howard pulls it off in high style. Of course, one of the men is disgraced President Richard M. Nixon, and the other is British interviewer David Frost, who risked his reputation and his own money in 1977 to interrogate Tricky Dick on camera about the sins of Watergate and Cambodia. Michael Sheen is Frost to a tee. And Frank Langella gives the performance of a lifetime as Nixon — shrewd, sweaty, persecuted and, in Langella's bone-deep tour de force, a flawed man possessed of a humanity that belies his image. One of the year's best.

Aint It Cool Review of the final cut of Frost/Nixon

Aintitcool has a review of what is believed to be the final cut of Frost/Nixon. Ron Howard screened the movie at for Leonard Maltin's Film Symposium class at USC, followed by a lengthy Q&A.

First of all, I believe what we saw was the finished film. Howard said during the Q&A that the movie's release date has been pushed back to December for prime awards consideration, but the film is totally finished, music and all. We were, according to Ronnie, the first audience to see this completed version.

This link will give you the full review. There is no mention of Matthew Macfadyen, unfortunately.

Claire was fortunate to see a Frost/Nixon preview which is interesting. She was also asked about her thoughts on Matthew Macfadyen. Here's what she had to say:
