- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Writer/director Jane Schoenbrun takes a unique look at teenage isolation and adult predation by placing her protagonist within a corner of the Internet which resembles the Slender Man/creepypasta phenomenon.
- Lee Jutton @ Film Inquiry
- Excerpt: Schoenbrun utilizes the hyper-specific language of the Internet—in particular, the dark world of creepypasta—to weave an engaging and frightening tale, featuring a remarkable debut performance from Anna Cobb, that should deeply affect audiences regardless of one’s gender identity.
- Jared Mobarak @ JaredMobarak.com
- Excerpt: Cobb takes the reins in her first feature performance. Whether she’s fooling her audience, fooling herself, or truly falling apart, she is commanding our attention and earning our empathy.
- C.H. Newell @ Father Son Holy Gore
- Excerpt: Part of Schoenbrun’s film is about the internet itself, and the collective stories with which many of us engage, while another part of it is about how our identity can be affected by our internet experiences.
- Jerry Roberts @ Armchair Cinema
- Excerpt: We’re All Going to the World’s Fair is a psychological horror exercise for the creepypasta generation. It is also so cryptic that it might pass in front of you and seem to be about nothing at all.
- [New] | Dan Stalcup @ The Goods: Film Reviews
- Excerpt: The low production values do create a lo-fi texture that is intermittently pleasing. It really does capture the sensation of staying up until 3 AM with all the lights out except the laptop twelve inches from my face, the glow from the screen delivering my toxic LED sunshine.
