John Candy: I Like Me

"What’s undeniable is the breadth and depth of the material."

"The tone borders on the stultifyingly reverential."

"In formal terms, it’s a standard-issue celebrity documentary."

"A charming and moving tribute."

"Lacks the editorial discipline to truly shine."

"Hanks’ enthusiastic, uncomplicated salute preaches to the converted while providing a brisk overview."

"Loving, elegiac, but ultimately rudderless."

"As simple and universal and ultimately unsatisfying as a hug at a funeral."

"It will break your heart."

"Starts to feel a little too hagiographic after a while."

"The affection is infectious."

"A moving, tender, and heartfelt documentary that, like Candy, is impossible not to love."

"Man, this was a hero worth meeting."
