	Author	Review
United States	John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A strong central performance isn't helped by many of the elements surrounding it"	NEU
United States	Ben Kenigsberg The New York Times	"While the film aspires to a clipped complexity, it comes across as gimmicky and amateurish"	NEG
United States	Nell Minow rogerebert.com	"J.K. Simmons does not speak a word in 'I’m Not Here,' but his performance is eloquent, anguished, and moving (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Chuck Bowen Slant	"An odd mixture of the subtle, moving, and maudlin (...) [Its] big moments aren’t convincing (...) It’s the little moments that distinguish 'I’m Not Here' (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times	"On-screen talent can’t overcome the contrived script (...) Cummings’ screenplay is thought-provoking and ambitious, but its execution is ultimately flawed and flat"	NEU
United States	Adam Graham Detroit News	"A slog of a story with the feel of a student film (...) The period details aren’t convincing in any of the film’s eras"	NEG
United States	Sara Stewart New York Post	"A simplistic concept executed with cloying melodrama (...) There isn’t a moment of 'I’m Not Here' that didn’t have me fervently wishing I wasn’t here (…) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"	NEG
