- 6.0 New York TimesNeil Genzlinger
'Dough' is sweet, often funny and always nonthreatening, a movie for those who wish the intractable realities of the world would just disappear.
Read - 6.0 The Hollywood ReporterFrank Scheck
Fortunately, the terrific lead performances by Jonathan Pryce and newcomer Jerome Holder are enough to help 'Dough' rise above its formulaic ingredients.
Read - 5.0 The A.V. ClubKatia Rife
'Dough' really does mean well: Pryce makes an excellent father figure, giving his scenes with Holder some real warmth, (...) ultimately viewers may feel like they?re just humoring the movie.
