Review of Dick

Dick (1999)
8/10
A pleasant surprise.

I didn't really expect a lot from this, but it turned out to be very funny in a silly sort of way. The central conceit was clever and perfectly executed. It does help a lot if you're familiar with the entire Watergate era, though; I suspect younger viewer won't understand the humor. There's one gag (about how one of the girl's mother met her new boyfriend) that's absolutely hilarious -- if you get the reference, and I doubt anyone under 40 would. Still, if you're looking for a light, silly comedy, give this a shot.
