According to the New York Times Give Me Liberty is, “HILARIOUS, DELIGHTFULLY, UNPREDICTABLE, while Variety said, “A BOISTEROUS, FREEWHEELING JOYRIDE”. RogerEbert.com called it, “ELECTRIC. A FRESH ALL-AMERICAN CROWD-PLEASER”, while The Hollywood Reporter said it’s, “EXHILARATING! ONE OF THE BEST OF SUNDANCE, and these are just a few of the worldwide reviews garnered by this incredible cast thus far, which makes it a “MUST SEE”.

Director/Writer Kirill Mikhanovsky known for his “Sonhos de Peixe” (2006) said, “Having ‘Give Me Liberty’ open nationwide and Lauren ‘Lolo’ Spencer’s performance recognized unanimously as revolutionary, is a testament to the American Dream in action.” Additionally, the film’s Writer/Producer, Alice Austen stated, “At different stages, industry executives labeled ‘Give Me Liberty’ as uncastable, unproduceable, unmarketable, and unreleaseable, but festival audiences kept telling us that this is the film everyone in America should see now. We applaud the vision and audacity of Music Box for bringing this film to the American people”.
