Finally got round to watching this one; great film the interviews were very compelling and Martin Sheen and Frank Langella were both brilliant.

Excellent performances by Sheen and Langella (who's nearly spellbinding at times) make this a must see, especially if you remember these events as they happened.

Sure, some dramatic license is taken, but it mostly rings true.The film is equally as hard on Frost as it is on Nixon, thankfully - it's not a total Nixon bash-fest. One of Ron Howard's best. 8/10.

The humour is wonderful but subtle and quite dry.
Everything you could want from a true story.

Very nicely done, with great performances from the 2 leads. Didn't plod along as badly as I expected and I especially liked Langella's last scene.

a verbal boxing match .. :) nice watch

Solid film with a great performance by Frank Langella. I almost felt sorry for Nixon and that's hard to do, It moves along nicely and it's an interesting film.

Great performances by all involved, - particularly Michael Sheen, who conveys just what a class act David Frost is (even considering Through the Keyhole).

An absorbing film replete with telling moments and powerful performances.

Despite a cavalcade of talent, Frost/Nixon is a middling thing.

When the movie sticks to its central dramatic conflict, it can be spellbinding.

Despite a moving, canny incarnation of the man by Frank Langella, despite a slickly entertaining coffee-table production as only Ron Howard knows how, the movie feels cooked up. In the name of dramatizing history, Frost/Nixon sacrifices it.

Like Doubt, this week's other stage-to-screen adaptation, director Ron Howard's Frost/Nixon pours old-fashioned theatrical juice into a cinematic bottle and lets the actors drink it up.
