Reception

Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 71 out of 100, based on four critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[3]

In a positive review, David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "In allowing their subject to tell her own story, Lovelace and Hall make it clear that Love refuses to see herself as a victim. She owns the charges of being abrasive, rude, scrappy, ferociously ambitious and a complicated figure in music history."[4]

Chase Hutchinson of TheWrap wrote that the film is "thoughtful" and "engaging".[5]
