Entertainment Reviews:
Still, it is gratifying to come across a mainstream film that seems happy to risk offending so many different groups. And, best of all, Weitz bravely declines to chicken out and give us a cosy ending.

Irish Times
Rating: 4/5 --
Both delights and contrivances combine to provide a bombshell final reel that is at least a dozen shades darker than anyone would expect.

Sky Cinema
Too broad and obvious to rate as satire, the film is finally neither focused nor acidic enough to say anything meaningful about the sorry state of the US.

Screen International
Don't be offended, none of this really means anything, it's just a goof about a lot of dumb stuff going down around us.

Wall Street Journal
Rating: 2/5 --
American Dreamz is mostly pretty feeble stuff.

Guardian
Promising more bite than it delivers, Dreamz is pitched too broadly to get very deeply under your skin. Still, there are some smarts at work here, and it will make you laugh.

Newsweek
The film takes on more than it knows how to handle, and what starts out as a standard poke-in-the-eye of TV switches its satiric focus to the incompetence of terrorists and politicians, the heartlessness of celebs, and even the mess of Iraq.

Description by OLDIES.com:
In the world of right-now, it seems as if literally everybody wants to be famous. Thanks to the global phenomenon of reality TV, literally anyone can be. Martin Tweed (Hugh Grant) is the self-centered host of the hugely popular television show, American Dreamz. The season features aspiring Dreamz finalists including Sally (Mandy Moore), a Southern belle who is sugar and spice in front of the camera and not-so-nice in real life, and Omer, a reluctant contestant with a penchant for show tunes. With the President of the United States (Dennis Quaid) serving as a guest judge on the final night of the season, the stage is set for an explosive show the nation will never forget.
