| ColeSmithey.comCole SmitheyOne of the most influential filmmakers in the history of cinema gets his due in a comprehensive love-letter documentary that celebrates Roger Corman's illustrious film career from top to bottom and inside-out. |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.Surprisingly, there's a very sour tone to "Corman's World" that undercuts a lot of the attempts to look back at Roger Corman's films with a laugh and a nostalgic gleam. |
| Toronto StarPeter HowellLike many of the 400-odd movies Roger Corman has produced and/or directed, Corman's World: Exploits of a Hollywood Rebel has a title that sizzles over content that merely simmers. |

| About.comJennifer MerinThis A-list documentary shines a glowing spotlight on the career achievements of Hollywood's B-movie mogul. Very entertaining, indeed! |
| NPRJeannette CatsoulisTo fresh eyes, Corman's World may feel more like a meal; to the rest of us, it's merely a glance at the menu. |
| Film ThreatDon R. LewisYes, it's all straight-forward, no muss filmmaking, but Roger Corman wouldn't want it any other way. |
| Washington PostAnn HornadayAlex Stapleton's lively, engrossing and enlightening documentary about a career that can be described as surprising on multiple counts. |
| DCistIan BuckwalterStapleton's structure is fairly by-the-numbers, but with a subject as fascinating (and archival clips as entertaining) as this, the quality is onscreen as soon as you turn on the camera. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawA supremely watchable documentary-tribute to the exploitation king Roger Corman. |
