Leave your thoughts about Mansome.
| AV ClubNathan RabinIf Spurlock had simply followed Waters around for 80 minutes, the result would be more entertaining than Mansome. Hell, 80 minutes of John Waters sleeping would be more fun than Mansome. |
| OregonianShawn LevyThere are a few chuckles, a few head-scratches and, thankfully, very few missteps. It charms. |
| ComingSoon.netEdward DouglasA very funny doc done for the sake of entertainment rather than something particularly deep or poignant. |
| Sin MagazineAustin KennedyThe one thing I want to do after watching this movie is to look up the product Fresh Balls. Yes! It does exactly what the product is called. That sounds awesome! |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderA shallow, disposal trifle about beards and waxing: the People magazine version of anthropology. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanThe best thing about the movie is that it keeps drawing conclusions in opposite directions. |
| Hollywood & FineMarshall FineReality TV lacks Spurlock's sly willingness to let the eccentric explain themselves, rather than letting them appear foolish. It's not deep, but then, it's about vanity. |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaJust because the film's subject is surfaces doesn't mean it only warrants a slight, surface treatment. |
| East Bay ExpressKelly VanceYou'll forget about this one while you're still watching it. |
| Seattle TimesMoira MacDonaldSpurlock certainly gets points for, well, fresh territory. |
