The only comedy so good it killed an entire movie genre forever.
Patrick WillemsFeb 1, 2019"The 60s are an important and exciting time." Literally how did anyone make a biopic after this?

“What do you think, George Harrison of The Beatles?“
meganAug 19, 201993 I'm just imagining everyone who worked on Walk Hard watching Bohemian Rhapsody on a plane or something and going, "hey...wait a minute..." A masterpiece of commiting to the gag.

me, thinking about the state of parody films vs how many music biopics kept getting made after this film and will continue to get made: wrong genre died
Carol GrantMar 15, 2019"Dewey. I'm cut in half pretty bad."
Angela FerragutoFeb 19, 2015"You're gonna have to give him a moment, son. Dewey Cox needs to think about his entire life before he plays."

Jeff Pasquinelli lovedWalk Hard: The Dewey Cox StoryOverall a great comedy with lots of reference to all sorts of music history. Almost a Forest Gump comedy of music instead of history if you will. Fantastic cast and solid story. One of my personal favorites.

[in rehab] Dewey:I'm so cold. Doctor:We need more blankets. Dewey:I'm so hot! Nurse:I think he has too many blankets. Doctor:Fewer blankets! Dewey:I'm hot and cold at the same time! Nurse:He needs more blankets and he needs less blankets. Doctor:[gravely] I'm afraid you're right.
Jacob Hall lovedWalk Hard: The Dewey Cox StoryOne of the best parodies I've seen. Tim Meadows and Kristen Wiig didn't get enough screen time I thought they were hilarious. Reilly did a great job as the lead. Very few people that could've done a better job.
Queue Cumberbatch likedWalk Hard: The Dewey Cox StoryAn inspirational tale of overcoming trials and tribulations, and making dreams come true. I’ve always had some trouble with hardness, but this movie taught me that anyone can be hard when they walk.

The wrong kid died! I never would’ve guessed that the world needed a Walk the Line parody led by John C Reilly, but I’m so happy it exists. Hilarious and insanely quotable.
ThaDrizzle lovedWalk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story“He needs more blankets and he needs fewer blankets” Might be my favorite spoof of all time. We need more movies with fictional icons
Hunter Kolweier lovedWalk Hard: The Dewey Cox StoryLoved the “stupid” comedy troughout the movie. Bit to much nudity but other than that it is a fantastic watch.

Metacritic
The movie walks the line of surreal vulgarity (you will not, repeat not, expect the penis), yet most of it, intentionally, is less nutzoid than your average megaplex genre parody.
Owen Gleiberman
Entertainment Weekly
The tricky thing about parody movies is that the jokes get old fast and they're hit-and-miss. Walk Hard, a spoof of every musical biopic from Ray to Walk the Line, is guilty on both counts. How lucky that when the jokes do hit, they kick major ass.
Peter Travers
Rolling Stone
A pitch-perfect musical comedy that at long last moves the talented John C. Reilly up the billing ladder from second banana to top banana.
