You Cannot Kill David Arquette

"A robust (albeit bloody) piece of entertainment. And it’s also a character study of a guy who’s revealing himself to us regardless of whether what we’re seeing is reality or construction." 

"If [it] has a theme, it’s the cleansing quality of pain (...) But the documentary also wants to be a narrative of triumph, and to that end it’s willing to go right where wrestling does: to a place where reality and fakery merge until you can’t tell the difference." 

"[A] great new documentary (...) David Arquette has finally found the role of a lifetime." 

"What’s fascinating is Arquette’s vulnerability, both emotionally and physically (...) a mythic tale out of a reject’s quest for redemption." 

“You Cannot Kill David Arquette” is a funny way to spend time with the energetic actor, but (...) It feels too often that the movie, and its title, is more meant for Arquette than it is for us (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)" 

"A thoughtful, entertaining, uplifting, and heartbreaking blending of the silly and sublime (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)" 

"A very odd, strained film, as theatrically faked as any wrestling bout (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)" 

"[An] uneven but frequently compelling documentary (...) the film mixes absurdity with sincerity, but always at the story’s centre is the ageing actor and his fragile psyche"
