ReelViews
She Hate Me is a mixed bag, but at least it's interesting and almost never boring. - 60
Los Angeles Times
Lee's energy never flags, and She Hate Me resonates with authority and impact and daring, but the messages it sends are mixed. - 50
Variety
A scabrous, provocative and often funny social satire about the American dream, Spike Lee's flawed but fascinating She Hate Me addresses everything from corporate malfeasance to the African AIDS epidemic, barely catching its breath in-between. - 50
The A.V. Club
While not quite a red herring, the corporate stuff serves as a prelude to a long-winded and mostly embarrassing treatise on alternative lifestyles and filial responsibility. - 30
Village Voice
Director Lee throws cold water on his own overheated fantasy scenario by having Mackie mope through every scene. What's fascinating is how She Hate Me perversely trumps its own perversity. - 25
Rolling Stone
When a Spike Lee film doesn't fly, it sinks like a stone. - 20
The Hollywood Reporter
How can a director as savvy as Lee make so many errors of judgment regarding taste, tone, intention and dramatic structure? - 20
The New Yorker
The mélange of plots, subplots, reveries, gags, cartoons, dirty bits, and hissy fits points to a work that is structurally modelled less on the classic narratives of cinema than on, say, a portion of Russian salad.
