Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 04/11/2017
I Hate Myself :) centers on two thoroughly repellant, self-absorbed figures with whom spending time proves a nearly intolerable trial. Go to Full Review Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times 04/05/2017
Ugly to look at and even uglier to listen to, Joanna Arnow's whiny documentary "i hate myself :)" plays like an especially brutal exercise in self-analysis. Go to Full Review Kristen Yoonsoo Kim Village Voice 04/05/2017
It's difficult to label Arnow's cinematic voice, and this particular film, or why anyone would even want to watch something so personal, but i hate myself :) is never not fascinating. Go to Full Review Eric Monder Film Journal International 04/07/2017
Deceptively simple cinéma-vérité piece is hard to stomach but thought-provoking. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Flier C @skyplane Jan 4 I saw other people online reviewing this autodocumentary and calling it uncomfortable and cringy to watch. It sure is. Joanna seems to surround herself with unempathetic people who mistreat her to reinforce her negative beliefs about herself. This film was so unabashedly personal and human. I will absolutely check out more of her works; I just hope she no longer accepts this type of treatment from anyone. See more Read all reviews
