Reception



Critical response


On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 89% based on 37 reviews, with an average rating of 7.1/10. The site's critical consensus reads: "Give Me Liberty expertly juggles resonant themes and a madcap series of events to produce a chaotic comedy with heart."[6]

Writing in The New York Times, Manohla Dargis describes Give Me Liberty as “a jolt of a movie, an anarchic deadpan comedy that evolves into a romance just around the time the story explodes…It’s irresistible,”[7] while Variety calls it “a boisterous, free-wheeling joyride.”[8] Matt Fagerholm describes it as “Electric. A Fresh all-American crowd pleaser.”[9]


Accolades


The film received four Independent Spirit Award nominations, including for Best Male Lead (Galust), Best Supporting Female Actress (Spencer), Best Editing (Mikhanovsky), and Best Feature Under $500,000 (John Cassavetes Award),[10] winning in the last category.[11]

It was the winner of Macau IFF 2019 (Best International Picture). It was named to the following “Best Of” lists: The Washington Post,[12] The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, National Board of Review, NPR (David Lapin), The Hollywood Reporter,[13] and RogerEbert.com (Sundance Best Performances).[14]
