Offbeat and oddball vignettes about struggle! It skewers gurus, academic discourse, job interviews, the politics of corporate life, Renaissance Faire entertainers at community centers, non-verbal communication, pet mourners, marriage, couch potatoes, and some things that defy easy description or are open to interpretation. Much makes little sense but it's not trying hard to make sense. There's a bit of call-back jokes; if you're paying attention they really work. The ensemble cast is great – they have enough range to play vastly different characters struggling with serious relationship problems to the mundane, to that not-so-consequential but desperate loneliness of realizing you locked your keys in your car or a clogged sink. One of my faves was a clogged sink telling a guy he's not living up to his potential. If you're old enough to remember the zaniness of Kentucky Fried Movie and liked it, this may be for you. If you like plot and a continuing story line you'll find this tedious. If you do like this - check out Maria Thayer in "Night of the Living Deb," a hilarious take on zombie apocalypses comedies.

I really wanted to like this and I’m down with the weird but there has to be some type of direction to make it moderately worthwhile to follow 2.4

Marc Savlov

Austin Chronicle

A message from the universal spirit, perhaps, and most certainly one that carries even more meaningful weight right now than director Collins could've ever suspected way back in the before-times.

Rated: 3/5

Jeannette Catsoulis

New York Times

Superficially timeless and apolitical, yet deeply informed by the psychic wounds of our current moment, the movie observes collective pain with endearing absurdity.

Alex Saveliev

Film Threat

I've Got Issues brings to mind the zaniness of Quentin Dupieux, with a dash of Todd Solondz's existentialism and the off-kilter freestyle nature of David Cross and Bob Odenkirk's stuff.

Rated: 6/10

Louisa Moore

Screen Zealots

A quirky movie that ranges from brilliant satire to irritating film school symbolism, with a central theme of "life's a bitch and then you die."

Rated: 3 / 5

Culture Mix

Some people will automatically like this movie because they think it will make them look like they're in on some kind of cool inside joke. But people who don't want to be subjected to tedious junk should avoid I've Got Issues altogether.

Hammer to Nail

Fans of Bob Byington and Miranda July will be at home with the deadpan humor and synecdochal storytelling.
