Rating: 4/4 --
It's impossible to say whether Dave will play as wonderfully over the decades as it does right now, but this smooth-as-silk comedy could not be more timely, or connect more hopefully with our current national consciousness.

Seattle Times
As Kline begins to take his presidential duties seriously, the comedy seeps out, a listless civic-mindedness drifts in like fog off the Potomac.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
While it's sloppy and draggy in parts, Kevin Kline, in the title role, delivers an ingratiating comedic performance.

Rating: 3/4 --
It's a high-concept premise that's employed to watchable yet erratic effect by Ivan Reitman...

Reel Film Reviews
Paying an homage to the prior work of the great Frank Capra, Dave offers a fresh contemporary take on a classic trope.

It's the spritely comic timing of the fine Hollywood ensemble that keeps Dave percolating. This affable, well-built comedy is Reitman's best since Ghostbusters.

...Kline has grown into a masterful sly comedian....He does a deadpan star turn...

Product Description:
A presidential look-alike finds himself in the oval office "filling in" for the president who has fallen ill. Lacking the political savvy of the real president, "Dave" proceeds to govern the country with a refreshingly straight-forward approach. Academy Award Nominations: Best (Original) Screenplay.
Description by Warner Home Video:
Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver star in this box-office winner about an uncanny Presidential look-a-like recruited as a momentary stand-in for America's Chief Executive. However, things don't turn out exactly as planned and Dave finds himself continuing the masquerade indefinitely.
Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters) directs and supporting players Frank Langella, Ving Rhames, Ben Kingsley and Charles Grodin supply more reasons to stand up and cheer. Real-life Washington politicos and pundits join the fun as Dave uses ordinary-guy savvy to deal with the extraordinary responsibilities of the Oval Office.
