Harmontown Ratings & Reviews
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
A film that is far more complicated and entertaining than the fanboy home movie you might anticipate (and dread).
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...far too often comes off as a self-congratulatory puff piece geared towards Harmon's apparent multitude of followers.
Oregonian
Jamie S. Rich
I felt I had a better sense of the man, but the podcast element still eluded me. The live performances didn't seem that entertaining; luckily, the rest of the story was.
The L Magazine
Jesse Hassenger
As performance, Harmon's shtick works better when he bothers to formulate it into something resembling actual stand-up.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
[This] kind of honesty is the difference between sitcoms like Community and 30 Rock, which can be clever and amusing, and a truly brilliant, risk-taking show like Louie, which can be either hilariously funny or mortally depressing.
Arizona Republic
Barbara VanDenburgh
It's in the exploration of how "Community" fandom formed its own distinctive community of outcasts that the film excels, finally making sense of the show's cult popularity by diving into that cult and crowdsurfing on it.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
As much a portrait of a community as of its brilliant, de facto mayor, Harmontown is a stirring tribute to the restorative power of finding your people.
Seattle Times
Doug Knoop
Harmon states at one point in the film that he just wants to be "the guy who makes people happy." This documentary does just that.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Lewis
The final 20 minutes are the strongest, when Harmon comes to some realizations about his behavior. Unless you're the biggest of fans, you may find yourself wishing that the film had reached this point earlier.
New York Times
Nicolas Rapold
Repeated praise of Mr. Harmon's nerdy fan base keeps emphasizing how appreciative its members are for his shining a light. Little splurts from an ingratiating score nudge us along.
L.A. Weekly
Chris Packham
Harmontown is a documentary about being stuck on a bus with genius comedy writer Dan Harmon and all of his psychological baggage during the period after May 2012, when Sony Studios fired him from his cult-favorite NBC sitcom, Community.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
By turns aptly amusing, poignant, indulgent and discomfiting.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
The result will play very well with the cult of fans who've improbably kept Community alive.
Film School Rejects
Allison Loring
The message at the heart of Harmontown shows how Harmon may have achieved certain goals, but the bigger challenge he still faces is learning to accept himself the way his audience and fans have accepted him.
IGN Movies
Matt Patches
For anyone who has dabbled in the creative, Harmontown is both sweet and terrifying.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Most people in Hollywood are overly concerned about what you think of them. Harmon is the kind of guy who admonishes hecklers who scream out "I love you" because he doesn't love himself.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
A field report from the frontlines of an all-access culture in which creativity fuels honesty and connection, and vice versa.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
There's no arguing that we're watching an elaborate work of self-promotion. But director Berkeley is wise enough to look past Harmon ...
AV Club
Josh Modell
Harmontown reveals a man who never seems far from a bleak cliff, and though it tries to present bright, joyous moments in his life, they're nearly always fleeting.
The Dissolve
Scott Tobias
Harmon emerges as sour and abusive, an unrepentant man-child who treats his fans as enablers.
