Mick LaSalle · San Francisco Chronicle 100.00/100.00

Those willing to meet (Untitled) even part way will discover a comedy of intelligence and wit, with some strong performances.

Roger Ebert · Chicago Sun-Times 88.00/100.00

A comedy worthy of the best Woody Allen, and Adrian is not unlike Woody's persona: a sincere, intense, insecure nebbish, hopeless with women, aiming for greatness.

Wesley Morris · Boston Globe 75.00/100.00

Walking the line between the movie’s broad strokes and its near-perfect pitch is the art itself, which has been designed and constructed by a team of smart designers.

Gary Goldstein · Los Angeles Times 70.00/100.00

As in the best movie satires, there's a solid core of truth informing director Jonathan Parker's (Untitled), which takes on the New York art and music worlds in one smart and funny swoop.

Scott Tobias · The A.V. Club 67.00/100.00

The three main characters aren’t cardboard-cutout poseurs, and for that alone, (Untitled) stands apart.

Lisa Schwarzbaum · Entertainment Weekly 91.00/100.00

The whole cast is museum quality, and the ''music'' performances are pitch-perfect in their dissonance.

Marc Mohan · Portland Oregonian 75.00/100.00

Significantly cleverer than its moniker, even though it picks for its satire one of the most inviting targets on record: the world of contemporary art.

Stephen Holden · The New York Times 70.00/100.00

If “(Untitled)” shrewdly hedges its bets about the value of it all, it is ultimately on the side of experimental music and art and their champions, no matter how eccentric. For that alone this brave little movie deserves an audience.

Sheri Linden · The Hollywood Reporter 70.00/100.00

(Untitled) assembles a collection of vivid character-types, sometimes a breath short of caricature. But for all its sharp comic angles, Jonathan Parker's film takes its central questions seriously and avoids the pat follow-your-bliss answers Hollywood prefers.

Ian Buckwalter · NPR 55.00/100.00

(Untitled) does have great moments, particularly in its technical execution -- the director began his career as a musician, and his command of sound design is particularly imaginative.
