Reception
Paul Parcellin of Film Threat gave the film a score of 7.5/10 and called it a "portrait of an individual who is difficult to pin down, not because he’s a self-aggrandizing liar — we’ve seen some world-class examples of that in recent times — but one who acknowledges that most of us are less than honest with ourselves, and therefore unlikely to tell others the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth."
Keith Uhlich of The Hollywood Reporter called the film "ludicrously somber" and wrote that it "deserves a smack".
