- 91The PlaylistGabe ToroThe PlaylistGabe ToroNancy, Please begins as a deadpan slacker comedy with existentialist undertones, and Will Rogers' Paul is a ball of unsettled twentysomething nerves. It's a subtle shift in Semans' first feature, both in tempo and in Rogers' performance, that we don't realize the film taking on a slightly more diabolical undertone.
- 90The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisIt’s a brutally unsympathetic portrait of situational anxiety that withholds comfort from Paul and viewer alike, and Mr. Semans refuses to relent.
- 80The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThis subtly engrossing psychological thriller plays like an intellectual version of Fatal Attraction, minus the sex and the dead bunny. And that’s meant as a compliment.
- 60VarietyRonnie ScheibVarietyRonnie ScheibFor Semans’ conceit of an obsessively narrow world to really work, he needed to have established an initially more expansive milieu.
