Variety
This astounding new documentary burrows into the thin and darkly funny spaces between artistry and vanity, isolation and community, collaboration and exploitation, sanity and madness. Full Review
Betsy Sharkey
Los Angeles Times
If anything, the film is a reflection of the Web zeitgeist, where observation comes easily but insight is rare. What saves the documentary from becoming a complete frustration is the sheer, stunning prescience of Harris. Full Review

New York Daily News
A snapshot of several New York eras that coincide with the Internet's growing pains, We Live in Public focuses on entrepreneur, party-thrower and dot.com bubble participant Josh Harris. Full Review

The New York Times
From the ample evidence, Mr. Harris's own life in public was a bust. Ms. Timoner sees him as a cautionary tale as well as a visionary. Full Review

Austin Chronicle
Harris' thought-provoking performance art/life isn't yet over, but by film's end he's become unplugged, both literally and metaphorically. Full Review
