- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Hynes White…imbuing the film’s best written scene (about not being able to savor a moment if you don’t know it will be your last) with a profundity that echoes later in Plaza’s last scene
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: Actress Maisy Stella effectively portrays a young woman trying to figure out her feelings, making her character poignant and relatable.
- Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: My Old Ass is hysterically funny at times, heartbreaking at others, and ultimately inspiring.
- Nell Minow @ moviemom.com
- Excerpt: One of the toughest parts of growing up is realizing that you will not always be able to go back, and, as Emily says in “Our Town” that no one is able to appreciate it while it is happening. “My Old Ass” conveys all of this with welcome heart and humor.
- Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: The film is therefore very life-affirming. Because languishing in the past is just as bad as fearing the future. The only surefire way to avoid both is to enthusiastically embrace the present.
- Matt Oakes @ Silver Screen Riot
- Excerpt: A well-acted and poignant piece of coming-of-age filmmaking, ‘My Old Ass’ uses a genre conceit to explore the concept of do-overs and living in the moment. Maisy Stella, Percy Hynes White, and Aubrey Plaza all rule the screen.
- Jacob Oller @ The A.V. Club
- Excerpt: In the harsh, sober sunlight, My Old Ass’ selling points remain but a pleasant memory as a conventional collegebound romance unfolds.
- Sebastian Zavala @ Cinencuentro.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: My Old Ass’ surprised me with an original, complex and emotional narrative; and with the great acting of Maisy Stella (natural, funny, frank), Aubrey Plaza (confused, cynical, scared) and Percy Hynes White (charismatic, charming).
