| eFilmCritic.comCollin SouterAlternately hilarious and sad, aggravating and soulful, scathing and joyous. It's a masterpeice. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Jeff ViceNot only does this musical documentary showcase a band that's at the top of its form ... it also serves as indictment of the ridiculously shallow, pre-fab music industry in general. |
| Film Freak CentralWalter ChawMore about the alchemical nature of movies than the band or their music, the picture is among the very best of the year. |
| St. Paul Pioneer PressChris Hewitt (St. Paul)You leave I Am Trying thinking it's great Wilco made the record they wanted to make but wondering what'll happen next time around. |
