Critics consensus

“Living in Oblivion dives into the folly of filmmaking with a sharp satire that sends up indie cinema while working as an entertaining independent picture in its own right.”

Slight but smart, and it doesn't overstay its welcome.

A hip indie version of Truffaut's Day for Night, Living in Oblivion celebrates the very act of filmmaking as grand folly, a triumph of absurdist heroism.

I cannot praise Living In Oblivion too highly, but I doubt that it will make fifty million dollars the moment it is shown.
