A conservative suburban couple from Bakersfield, California, decide to star in their own reality show about their activism.

Frank Scheck

The Hollywood Reporter

Aiming for but failing to achieve a Christopher Guest level of spoofery, Ron and Laura Take Back America lives up to George S. Kaufman's quip that satire is what closes on Saturday night.

Nick Schager

Village Voice

There's only one joke here - GOP voters are bigoted, Stars and Stripes-wearing clowns - and it's handled with the sort of blunt, bludgeoning mean-spiritedness that it slams them for peddling.

Rich Cline

Shadows on the Wall

Broad and silly, it makes some very strong points on a variety of topics. So it's smart and important, even if it feels like a Saturday Night Live sketch that goes on for 90 minutes.

Rated: 3.5/5
