"These guys have to know they're ridiculous. Don't they?"
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
4/5
"There’s never a moment in
Cinemania
where we don’t want to know any more about these people."
eFilmCritic.com
David Cornelius
3/4
"Eccentricity never struck this close to home before."
Movie Boeuf
David N. Butterworth
B-
"What keeps it from being great, I think, is that these folks' cinemania comes through, but their cinephilia does not."
Film Blather
Eugene Novikov
3/4
"An enjoyable look at the almost frightening grip that cinephilia has on these people's lives."
MovieMartyr.com
Jeremy Heilman
5/10
"Cinemania might have been a more edifying experience if it really delved into the roots of this obsession."
All Movie Guide
Josh Ralske
4/5
"Creepily fascinating. For all that they consume, they seem little interested in the films themselves, as an art form or as an industry."
Cinerina
Karina Montgomery
2.5/5
"Their mania might be funny if it weren't so creepy."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
"[Ends up] focusing on the dismal fact that their subjects have cut themselves off from real life in favor of reel life."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
4/5
"All five people are fascinating."
Film Threat
Rory L. Aronsky
2/5
"Sure, it's vital for a documentarian to present their subject with a minimum of subjectivity, but the overall sense I got from the ponderous
Cinemania
is simply that "boy these people sure are weird and fun to laugh at"."
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
1/4
"It's unable to dig beneath the surface of movie-obsession to find a chord of humanity."
