- Potential love scenes between NELSON and Shields could be the antidote to America's couch potato problem.
-People Magazine
- Well, if Ohlmeyer and NBC are indeed looking to scale back on any stars that really aren't funny, they needn't stop with SNL. Have the executives by chance seen JUDD NELSON'S work on Suddenly Susan.
-Joe Queenan-T.V. Guide
- ...Dole and Newt Gingrich have often shared a podium; in today's political climate this is the equivalent of having "Starring
JUDD NELSON" at the top of your movie ad.
-Bruce Handy-Time Magazine
- JUDD NELSON'S career seems to have plateaued(If you can call the USA Network a plateau).
-Curt Holman-Creative Loafing
- NELSON'S acting-consisting of rolling his eyes, sweating, and lurching at the camera-is another minus.

- Casting NELSON and O'Neal as dueling eggheads makes the choice of Nicole Kidman for a psychologist in "Batman Forever" look like cinema verite. At least they got the good guy (brand-friendly Shaq) and the rival (Shannon Dogherty-ex NELSON) right.
-People Magazine
- NELSON wanders through this film like a zombie.

-Pat Graham Chicago Reader
- Looking like he hasn't slept since New Jack City, NELSON is no rookie to this league.

- Wesley Snipes is so good as a ruthlessly ambitious urban crack lord that he almost overcomes the wretched performances of the glummer than thou JUDD NELSON and shaky rapper Ice-T.
-People Magazine
- Reynolds and NELSON are farcical as tsk-ing commentators. They come across more as peeping toms than sage narrators.
-Bonnie Johnson People Magazine review of "If Your Kidis on Drugs"
