I’m about ready to head out to the theater to see Joshua Michael Stern’s comedy “Swing Vote,” but before I leave, let’s take a brief look at what the Web’s critics have to say about the new film starring Kevin Costner, Denis Hopper, Kelsey Grammer and Madeline Carroll. As usual, click on the names below to read the full reviews. Our review will follow later today.

• James Rocchi at Cinematical: "'Swing Vote' isn't going to be remembered as the best political comedy of our time (Ivan Reitman's wacky-but-warm Dave still holds that position) but it's not a bad showcase for Costner, and its heart and brain are both in something close to the right place."

• CinemaBlend's Katey Rich: "The film contains bits of Capra-esque, everyman fantasy and bits of gritty and realistic rural drama, but the balance never works out to create a coherent or compelling story. It’s good to see Costner doing comedy again, but he’ll need a better vehicle before he stages a real comeback."

• Brad Brevet at RopeofSilicon: "Perhaps the most enjoyment I got out of the entire film was from the over the top political ads run by the two candidates (Kelsey Grammer and Dennis Hopper) as they were forced to flip-flop depending on whatever Bud said in the media."

• LatinoReview's Ron Henriques: "Though there is plenty of humor to be found in Costner's experiences with newfound celebrity like driving a race car with Richard Petty or performing with a Willie Nelson tribute band, the real moral of the story has little to do with politics."
