Directed by the young actor Adam Goldberg, "I Love Your Work is an attempt to say something interesting about modern celebrity.

Manohla Dargis, New York Times

What is so dreadful about unearned fame and undeserved riches that warrants this faux-Antonioni despair?

Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger

At last, Adam Goldberg has given us his 8 1/2. It's an ambitious rumination on fame, reality, love, loss and regret that falls so far short, he should have called it 2 1/8.

Kyle Smith, New York Post

Working with a self-consciously urgent, neo-noir style, Goldberg seems intent on expressing a meaningful message of some kind. It's too bad, then, that he has chosen such a shallow subject.

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News

I Love Your Work gets the dissonance of the celebrity lifestyle to a T. But the self-reflexive strategy of Goldberg and co-writer Adrian Butchart is too brainy by half.
