A hilariously wild ride where every creative decision seemed to have been accompanied by the phrase, “Why the hell not?”

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 3, 2024

It is clear that, if it finds its ideal viewer, this cult-potential oddity can be a real delight, but those who don't play along will probably end up loathing it.

| Aug 1, 2024

A decidedly 21st-Century film brimming with timely pop-cultural references that, at the same time, feels like a classical Hollywood musical.

| Jul 12, 2024

In its effort to be the naughtiest movie ever, the limp “Dicks” comes off as just another try-hard.

| Original Score: C | Jul 6, 2024

Charles and company create a comedy with an underground spirit destined to become a cult film that is unlike anything else, which in these times is rare. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 27, 2024

The film in question, a mix of You in Boston and I in California with South Park, has all the freshness that, one senses, the original work possessed. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 24, 2024

Over the top, low rent, and goofy in all the right ways.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 24, 2024

Dicks succeeds modestly at best, and maybe could have been more effective had it thrown in a few subtle digs instead of always yelling grotesqueries directly in our faces.

| Feb 3, 2024

A raunchy musical that’s trying so very hard to be funny, likeable, and edgy that it fails at all of it. Very little about this film works, and a handful of moderately successful gags and a couple of humorous jokes doesn’t make it worth your time.

A fun, hilarious comedy, “Dicks: The Musical” is best described as “a fun and raucous Parent Trap.” And that’s a good thing.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 22, 2023

It’s a fragile but workable framework for what is basically a series of sketches: Mulhally and Lane serve as parental figures on more than one level, stepping in whenever the one-note performances of the leads begin to pall.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 8, 2023

Maybe at a late-night session, with a few good friends and a bottle of something tasty stashed in your jacket pocket, Dicks: The Musical will start to look like the cult-hit it desperately wants – and perhaps deserves – to be.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 7, 2023

Our leads are good, but Dicks: The Musical misses on its attempt at humor through music.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Dec 4, 2023

… a provocative, abrasive, and wildly funny spoof of both the ‘traditional’ stage musical …

| Original Score: 17.5/20 | Nov 27, 2023

Dicks: The Musical seems like a fun, boundary-pushing LGBTQIA+ romp, but there’s no juice.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Nov 17, 2023

This film does a good job of getting at the raw, naughty energy of truly underground theater, where boundaries can be broken and cuss words can be used as load-bearing joints in the script.

| Nov 10, 2023

Incredibly raunchy, profane, and so knowingly over the top... It's truly inspired, but not for everyone.

| Nov 1, 2023

Amid all the cursing, genitalia, and copulation jokes, Dicks says something sweet about accepting and loving people for who they are — even if they're Sewer Boys.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Oct 26, 2023

Without any genuinely catchy songs besides “Out Alpha the Alpha,” there’s little to make Dicks memorable. Instead, perhaps, it will make a great, obscure movie trivia question someday: What was A24’s first musical?

| Oct 26, 2023

The movie clocks in at only 86 minutes -- including end-credit bloopers -- so it only slightly overstays its welcome, and there are enough hilariously bizarre bits to sustain most of that slim running time.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 26, 2023
