Critics' reviews

"[It] offers only limited depth and it’s hard to imagine any viewer not being left with serious questions throughout, but as a superficial, hastily glossed nostalgic oddity, it’s a tidy way to wrap your 2021 viewing"

Daniel Fienberg: The Hollywood Reporter
"[It] weaves an entertaining, fast-paced narrative (...) Visually, 'Beanie Mania' makes the most of its subject"

Priyanka Bose: AV Club
"'Beanie Mania' has the sheen of a guilty-pleasure documentary, and it’s exactly that. But it also sneaks some substance into its narrative. It’s a fun watch."

John Serba: Decider
