'House of D': Gives itself the grade it deserves
by Eleanor Ringel Gillespie

David Duchovny makes his feature directing debut with "House of D," which the former "X-Files" star also wrote. An unwieldy mix of sappy buddy movie and hormonally challenged coming-of-age nostalgia, the movie is set in Greenwich Village in the early 1970s. Which, of course, is where Duchovny grew up in the early '70s, thus suggesting at least some of this self-conscious mess is autobiographical. Read the full review

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: D
"The movie never gels. It lies there, flat and unconvincing, with little spurts of florid melodrama."

The Palm Beach Post: D
"Duchovny fails to persuade us with his script and draws such cringe-making performances from his cast that his directing skills seem minimal. At least he is bound to make it onto the list of worst films of 2005."
