Dennis Schwartz

Disappointing acerbic political satire directed and written by Buck Henry.

What is the sound of one man not laughing?

Buck Henry directed his own screenplay, which disintegrates about halfway through the film.

[First Family] has sequences that are side-splittingly funny, others that are sublimely cheerful and still others that, like the movie itself, simply don't know how to end.

TV Guide

Filled with illogical situations and juvenile humor, First Family will have trouble getting anybody's vote.
