Robert Abele Los Angeles Times Mar 29, 2021
Restless and bracing, "Wojnarowicz" gives a notorious life its due. Go to Full Review
Ryan Lattanzio IndieWire Mar 25, 2021
B+
Skillfully edited by Dave Stanke, "F**k You F*ggot F***er" is a constantly moving collage, a locomotive piece propelling toward a bleak end, and that is Wojnarowicz's death. Go to Full Review
Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Mar 25, 2021
4/5
McKim's documentary is as jangly and urgent as its subject and his art, and it packs a melancholy wallop, using the artist's own running commentary via cassette tape. Go to Full Review
Nathaniel Muir AIPT Oct 31, 2021
Powerful doc about a time when no one wanted to talk about AIDS, and the New York artist who was making sure everyone heard what he was saying. Go to Full Review
Jason Shawhan Nashville Scene Sep 9, 2021
This is essential viewing for everyone, especially people who maintain they can't handle it. It is utterly impossible to look around and not hail David Wojnarowicz as a prophet who saw exactly what was happening. Go to Full Review
Glenn Dunks The Film Experience Apr 16, 2021
A-
It's rare to see a film like this and actually imagine its subject liking it instead of grimacing at its sanded edges and good taste; Robert Mapplethorpe would be jealous. Go to Full Review
