Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Let Me Be Me isn't a perfect film, however, it is a rewarding film that tells a perfectly engaging and valuable story brought to life by the frequent narration of Kyle himself. Rated: 3.0/4.0 Jul 16, 2022 Full Review Joel Copling Spectrum Culture Let Me Be Me puts far too much trust in a system whose effects were, in all likelihood, accidental at best.
