The Hater Reviews
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
The best thing about the movie is its refusal to make any character one-dimensional or completely unsympathetic, especially when we find our own expectations challenged.
Common Sense Media
Monique Jones
This dramedy has a worthy message about politics, but it presents it in an a slightly messy way.

Political comedy proves short on laughs but offers empathy for Red State USA.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
Once you get past all the obnoxious ranting by the movie's main character, The Hater is a comedy-drama that has as much to say about political and cultural wars in America as it does about family, female empowerment, and the grieving process.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Tim Cogshell
This movie manages to do correctly what a film like Don't Look Up did so badly, which is to have a political point of view and believe in it while knowing that not everyone on your side of the camp is great while not everyone on the other side is evil.
Film Threat
Benjamin Franz
Generally, I found The Hater charming and lovable.

But Dorothy's real triumph is how she eventually embraces her family roots and reconnects to the people she left behind.
