	Author	Review
United States	Ben Kenigsberg The New York Times	"What Lieberstein has made is a self-help manual disguised as a comedy."	NEG
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"[It] has no grand ambitions for what to do with its wacky premise — suggesting that perhaps Lieberstein ought to have written it as a short film instead. And yet, thin as the film may seem, it does have a certain wisdom to impart"	NEU
United States	Caryn James The Hollywood Reporter	"A comedy that ricochets between funny and bland (...) The humor is constantly interrupted by the lackluster, obvious romance plot"	NEU
United States	Lena Wilson The Playlist	"'Song' is an inventive story about an underserved subject. It provides never-before-seen filmmaking that’s as satisfying as letting go a long-suppressed scream."	POS
United States	Brandon Katz The New York Observer	"It has more pathos than you might expect, and it could leave fans of 'The Office', hoping for good-natured humor, disappointed."	NEU
