Leave your thoughts about My Name Is Hmmm....
| The ListClaire SawersAn exquisitely styled, thoughtful and refreshingly executed arthouse road movie, on the eggshell subject matter of father/daughter incest. |
| Film-Forward.comKent TurnerThe film is quietly observational and, in terms of style, all over the place. The director obviously borrows from the looseness of the early French New Wave. |
| ArtforumAmy TaubinDelicate, tough, and heartbreakingly sad. |
| Radio TimesDavid ParkinsonThe skittishly structured storyline concocted by Troublé and Jean-Pol Fargeau becomes increasingly contrived, and they end up trivialising a serious issue. |
| Little White LiesDavid EhrlichA road movie with no direction from French fashionista-turned-filmmaker agnès b. |
| Times (UK)Wendy IdeIndulgent, inept and pretentious, this represents the worst kind of artistic entitlement, an assumption that the ability to make a pair of trousers somehow equates with the ability to make a film. |
