Critical response


Italian Studies holds a 43% approval rating on review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, based on 23 reviews, with a weighted average of 5.60/10.[9]

In a positive review, Rolling Stone called the film, "Unforgettable from the jump," features a "raw, guileless, egoless performance" from Vanessa Kirby, and that it "may be the most immersive memory loss movie of all time."[10] The Los Angeles Times wrote, "Italian Studies is a unique curio of a film, a free sketch of time and place melting into a singular subjective experience that asks, “Does memory matter?”[11] In a mixed review, Variety wrote that "Adam Leon’s minor-key, jaggedly structured indie isn’t concerned with the specific whens, hows and whys of Alina’s out-of-nowhere amnesia, but with the hazy in-the-moment sensation of being struck with it, the sensation of stumbling for the lightswitch in your own mind. That’s a nebulous-sounding dramatic proposition, though as performed by a nervy, live-wire Vanessa Kirby, it becomes a tensely compelling one."[12]
