A 1970s-era Watergate conspiracy thriller/dark comedy about a woman in the Nixon White House who tries to leak the 18 1/2 minute tape to a reporter.

Critics Consensus

Some tonal inconsistency makes 18 1/2 more of a 7/10, but this well-acted period piece mines the Watergate scandal for fresh, insightful dramedy.

Mirvish’s excellent cast approaches this sequence like a one-act play, swinging at every curveball their fellow actors throw.

It’s entertaining enough and you never know where the story is headed, but it doesn’t quite hold together.

Yes, another Watergate movie, but this one's fun and totally fictional.

3.5/4.0

One of the year's true indie gems and most under-appreciated films.

3/5

gamely entertaining ... The biggest problem with 18 1/2 is keeping track of the Watergate figures. ... 18 1/2 might be enjoyable for history buffs, but others may wonder what the fuss is about.

Steadfastly refusing to choose just one genre, but maintaining a compelling and unique tone throughout, 18½ captures just how ludicrous and doomed America truly is.
