	Author	Review
United States	Jay Weissberg Variety	"Camp and cultural analysis are unhappily entwined in this choppy look at the myth of Jayne Mansfield."	NEU
United States	Neil Young The Hollywood Reporter	"Engaging but erratic (...) Even after 90-odd minutes, Mansfield remains something of an enigma"	NEU
United Kingdom	Jonathan Romney Screendaily	"The interpolated dance sequences and skits bring an amateurish touch to what is otherwise a cogent, hugely entertaining production (...) There’s much fun to be had from the gleefully collaged material"	NEU
United States	Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times	"It’s not an intimate portrait of the woman, but a celebration of the sex-positive, taboo-breaking image she created for herself "	POS
United States	Jordan Hoffman Vanity Fair	"Apart from being an amusing and entertaining affair, the documentary 'Mansfield 66/67' breaks new ground by embedding a pun in its title"	POS
