United States	Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times	"Enhanced by playful animations, this nicely composed documentary serves as an engagingly honest profile of a driven man and his prodigious movement."	POS
United States	Michael Nordine The Wrap	"You’ve seen many movies like this before, which isn’t to say it doesn’t have its charms. Most of them are thanks to Sim himself"	POS
United States	Jared Mobarak The Film Stage	"When you learn poop causes as many deaths as car crashes, however, it’s difficult not to listen."	POS
Canada	Kevin Ritchie Now Toronto	"'Mr. Toilet' is full of candid interviews (...) The film really gets interesting in the latter half when Sim’s tactics run up against cultural sensitivities in rural India."	POS
Canada	Andrew Parker The Gate	"An intelligently crafted and balanced documentary that effectively captures her subject’s rambunctious personality (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
