- Travis Burgess @ The Sacred Wall
- Excerpt: The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent’ is a good film and a great love letter to Nicolas Cage
- Andrea Chase @ KillerMovieReviews.com
- Excerpt: Sly, and, ahem, massively intelligent, it’s the silliest exercise in gnothi seauton going in cinema, using lampoon of the highest order to ruthlessly examine pop culture and what it means live authentically. No, really.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: In the end the Nicolas Cage movie Nick Cage inhabits is far too generic and commercial to be a 2020’s Nicolas Cage movie, but the movie about him being in that movie is just right.
- Sarah Gopaul @ Digital Journal
- Excerpt: This film is proof Cage is aware of his image and has embraced this over-the-top persona to the point that he can also laugh at its occasional absurdity.
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: Nicolas Cage and Pedro Pascal have ample chemistry together to make this buddy comedy a winner.
- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: Amusing but instantly forgettable, fueled by a self-congratulatory smugness and self-reference. The best bits are the sincere stuff: a scene-stealing Pedro Pascal and a sweetly vulnerable Nic(k) Cage.
- Harrison Martin @ Flixfrog
- Excerpt: The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent gives the viewer a brief glimpse into the psyche of film star Nicolas Cage. It’s also a fun bromance about two guys who love movies and acting.
- Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: Nicolas Cage does tour de force work in a movie that reminds us of what a cinematic treasure he is.
- [New] | Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: Cage and Pascal play it like all the best bromances, moving from awkward introductions to extreme enthusiasm and calm comfort to unhinged chaos with a smile.
- Eddie Pasa @ Gunaxin
- Excerpt: … sure to be regarded as quite possibly the greatest meta-film in cinema history. Yeah, I said that.
- Ed Travis @ Cinapse
- Sebastian Zavala @ MeGustaElCine.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Even if you’re not the biggest of Nic Cage fans, it’s worth giving it a shot. I’m sure you’ll have a good time watching it, and you’ll even be encouraged to watch some of Cage’s classic movies.
