I Am Chris Farley Ratings & Reviews
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
Brent Hodge and Derik Murray's new film will likely captivate the comedian's legions of fans, though it may alienate the rest of us.
Epoch Times
Joe Bendel
Hodge & Murray paint a comprehensive portrait of Farley as a devout Catholic and a devoted friend and brother.
The Film Stage
Amanda Waltz
We're left wondering a lot of things, as I Am Chris Farley scratches the surface of Farley's life and death, but never bothers to dig any deeper.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
An entertaining yet pervasively superficial documentary...
Madison Movie
Rob Thomas
For an officially-sanctioned documentary , the film does go deeper than I expected into the insecurities and self-loathing that underpinned both his comic genius and his vices. It's Midwestern polite, but also Midwestern honest.
The Young Folks
Jon Espino
I Am Chris Farley has an unspoken and not fully acknowledged darkness that remains in the outskirts of the film from its beginning.
Movie Mezzanine
Andy Crump
I Am Chris Farley is a warm and touching commemoration of its subject, but it's also awkward and evasive, like your parents consciously avoiding talking about how grandpa died.
Consequence
Blake Goble
I Am Chris Farley is a kind eulogy, a colorful parade of stars remembering the legacy of a famed funnyman. As a remembrance, I Am Chris Farley's heart, care, and, well, cuteness is undeniable.
Under the Radar
Austin Trunick
I Am Chris Farley celebrates the life of a star who self-destructed too early.
We Got This Covered
Matt Donato
I Am Chris Farley may avoid some of the comedian's darker moments, but it lets Chris bring joy into our lives at least one more time, and that's all he ever wanted to do.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
I kept thinking what Farley would have thought of it. He probably would have been embarrassed and a bit shy about the whole thing. But he would have loved the attention. He would have smiled and laughed. And that's all that really matters.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
"I Am Chris Farley" sticks to slickly edited, bite-sized anecdotes about an attention-starved Midwestern goofball unprepared for stardom, accompanied by storybook music that accentuates Farley's childlike nature over his darker impulses.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
The story of dependence and excess is sadly familiar - and as with most of its material, "I Am Chris Farley" doesn't find a fresh way to tell it.
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
What emerges is an artist who lived for the stage lights but sank into darkness on his own.
Film Journal International
Ethan Alter
Understandably if disappointingly leery of asking too many difficult questions about [Farley's] life and death.
Entertainment Weekly
Kyle Anderson
SNL characters like Matt Foley will live forever, but Farley should be granted just as much credit for gamely carrying bad films on his broad shoulders.
AV Club
Kyle Ryan
I Am Chris Farley has its moments, but it plays more like a loving tribute than documentary, as if a bunch of his friends got together to tell stories. In that way, it succeeds, but it's hard to shake the feeling that the picture isn't complete.
Variety
Andrew Barker
Farley's story seems to be a sadder and more complicated one than the filmmakers appear fully comfortable exploring.
New York Daily News
Eddie Goldberger
There's not much new for Farley fans, but they'll enjoy the admiring and amiable tribute.
Village Voice
Sam Weisberg
The movie is saccharine. The tone is set from the get-go by that lazy, obsequious title - it sounds like some bogus self-help seminar that one of Farley's characters would have smashed to smithereens.
