Film Inquiry
The Mask You Live In is an important movie but it's not a "take your medicine" kind of important movie. Rather, it empowers a man to be the person he wants to be, not the one others are pressuring him to be.

Common Sense Media
Reductive and sensationalistic correlations detract from the movie's salient points.
Full Review
Variety
It overstates -- and over-stats -- its case, at times making that case as overly simplistic and over-determined as it argues American masculinity is.

Product Description:
This probing documentary shines a light on what it means to be male in American society, where the definition of masculinity can be extremely narrow. Director Jennifer Siebel Newsom suggests that by expecting our males to behave in very specific ways, we are not only harming our boys and men but also society at large.
