Reception
[ edit ]
Killing Reagan has a 63% rating on the Rotten Tomatoes review aggregator.[4]
The Hollywood Reporter said the film was the best of the "Killing" adaptations to date, but said the film "doesn’t exactly know where to begin and runs out of energy in the aftermath of Reagan’s recovery from a killing that didn’t occur."[5] A review in People magazine said that Mathieson "captures the essence of the Reagan persona" but that "Cynthia Nixon’s Nancy is rather pointedly lacking in depth."[6]
Accolades
[ edit ]
Killing Reagan received three Critics' Choice Television Award nominations for its seventh annual awards.[7]
