Critics Consensus

Marianna Palka's quirky indie debut centred on two dysfunctional loners is hit and miss, but has enough originality to see it through.

Alternately compelling and dramatically limp, the film scores points for exploring unfamiliar territory but lacks the emotional depth to make some very strange behavior believable.

3/4

A short and sweet anti-romantic comedy, Good Dick puts together a heav ily depressed young woman with a homeless clerk who rents her porn at a Los Angeles video store.

1.5/5

Instead of embodying the fun and spirited fluff that a rom com should be, this film just grinds its teeth through the process.

This movie trumps Punch-Drunk Love for strangest on-screen couple in a movie I've seen in recent months.
