Ferrell's Bush imitation loses a lot in being projected to a large audience, and the script is ghastly. There's no wit, no political satire.

Variety

Ferrell is talented enough to produce several amusing moments, but lacking a communal audience environment, it was only a so-so TV experience.

It offered me something I could not find anywhere else in popular culture -- closure to the eight-year presidency of George W Bush.

Ferrell does a fine job spinning the presidency on its heels and he provides a generous dose of laughs (the bit where he gives the audience nicknames is a hoot and the product of improv genius).

Rated: 6/10

Once Ferrell launches into Bush's biography, we get what we'd expect from a 90-minute, Ferrell-lead Bush-bashing Broadway show -- and for the most part, it's good.

Everyone loves Will Ferrell in short SNL skits like when did impressions of George W. Bush. Unfortunately, this long form version of that gets a bit old quick. There were a few clever and humorous monologues, but overall it's hard to maintain an impression for a 90 minute show, but he gave it a good shot. Rating: 6 / 10
