Addicted to Fame Ratings & Reviews
Long Island Press
Prairie Miller
So how much are attention addicts Giancola and Anna Nicole Smith alike as they weirdly bond away in his movie? Giancola was shrewd enough to foolproof his film with deliberate self-parody, while Smith succumbed to her own self-dehumanization.
Television Without Pity
Ethan Alter
Addicted to Fame is like a feature-length whine disguised as a documentary.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
"Addicted" proves a strangely sad yet wildly compelling cautionary tale.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
A valuable reflection of contemporary celebrity culture - simply because it shows us how low we've fallen.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
Entertaining if ultimately depressing.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore

AV Club
Nathan Rabin
Judging by the film's alternately self-pitying, self-aggrandizing, and bitter tone, the schlock director is afflicted with a bizarre lack of self-consciousness to rival Smith's own impregnable wall of self-delusion.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
[A] hapless, clueless, necrophiliac documentary ...
Slant Magazine
Nick McCarthy
The cinematic equivalent of staging a disaster and then bitching about the mess.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
Cheap-o, disingenuous ...
