Welcome to Me Reviews
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
There's not much plot here and very little in the way of character development. Alice is defined by her disorder and the screenplay isn't interested in delving into her life and relationships.
Associated Press
Jocelyn Noveck
There's dark comedy, and then there's take-no-prisoners, dare-you-to-keep-looking dark comedy. Kristen Wiig's "Welcome to Me" falls decidedly in the latter category, making us laugh but feel deeply unsettled about doing so.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
It's a tricky business playing someone who is mentally ill and perhaps should be confined for observation, especially in a dark comedy. Wiig manages to make Alice funny as hell, endearing, sad and sometimes a little frightening.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
What starts out looking like a quirky attack on magical thinking turns out to be a sustained assault on television: the way it subsumes and distorts reality (more or less artfully) into a moneymaking enterprise.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Tirdad Derakhshani
At turns horribly funny and simply horrific, Piven's film suggests our therapeutic age has reduced us all to psychic cripples who resort to emotional exhibitionism in lieu of honest self-examination and self-expression.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
The movie is small, but the actors make it seem larger, like binoculars turned around the right way.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Welcome to Me is not sure if it wants to be an uncomfortable comedy or wry drama.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
While she doesn't really humanize Alice, Wiig delivers an impressive blend of awkwardness, humor and pathos that elevates the story, even though it isn't enough to mask its flaws.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
"Welcome to Me" has its charming, funny and sensitive moments, but it also suffers from its own form of instability.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Screenwriter Eliot Laurence and director Shira Piven... [have] got the ideal star in Wiig, whose vacant gaze, frozen smile, and preternatural calm have always suggested a vast reservoir of madness.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
A nervy, discomfiting comedy starring Kristen Wiig and a deep bench of supporting talent.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
Malicious, hilarious and heartbreaking ... one of the biggest movie surprises of 2015 so far.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
It's difficult to know what to feel when watching "Welcome to Me." That's a compliment.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
There's an emotional nakedness to Wiig's unhinged performance as Alice Klieg, a woman with borderline personality disorder who has stopped taking her antipsychotic medication, that sometimes makes her hard to watch, even as she is in the limelight.
RogerEbert.com
Susan Wloszczyna
"Welcome to Me" basically lives and dies by [Wiig's] performance, and, luckily, her Alice Klieg is a carefully and cunningly crafted creation, which exposes an undercurrent of pain and sorrow beneath her often placid, pixilated state.
Grantland
Wesley Morris
Shira Piven has directed this movie with a deft but perfectly zany touch.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
I'm not even sure it can be called a movie; it feels like a setup and a character in search of a story.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Welcome to Me works better as a character study than a full-fledged story. Audiences will have little sense of Alice beyond what they first see.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
This is Wiig's show, and connoisseurs of the comedy craft will flip for her.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
It's the equivalent of tripping someone on crutches and then inviting her over for tea.
