Critics Consensus: Well-acted and sharply written, Non-Fiction finds writer-director Olivier Assayas working in a comedic vein that channels classic forebears while remaining utterly fresh.

In terms of surface tone, this is one of the airiest things the director has made, though what it has to say about the Internet is as unsettling as Demonlover...
[Assayas] is genuinely interested in all sides of the debate and isn't looking for answers so much as constantly asking questions. At the same time, Non-Fiction still feels dry and didactic even if it resists a thesis.
The frame holds steadier here; it's the churning dialogue - funny, seductive, always carving out fresh tributaries - that propels you forward.
A sexy, fun film filled with a lot of zingers.
Olivier Assayas' sly and delightful Non-Fiction... feels like such a lark at first - like a master filmmaker clearing his throat between more significant projects. That's exactly what Assayas wants you to think.
Gets progressively lighter as it moves along, acknowledging the primacy of human interaction (foibles and all) over doctrine.
A film purpose-built to be enjoyed at European festivals, and does that job well, but its appeal to anyone outside of that crowd is surely limited by its aloof characters and self-satisfied sense of humour.
Olivier Assayas' Non-Fiction shows one of the great contemporary filmmakers at his most perceptive and loquacious.
Non-Fiction is definitely one of the more chattier Assayas films, and it is dotted with his amazing sense of humour.
Non-Fiction may not change one's views on whether technology is bringing society together or ripping it apart, but it does offer some charming food for thought.
Sustains interest by keeping the characters, their concerns and their personal struggles, in the forefront, and by giving the viewer the interesting task of a judge at an informal debate, on a subject almost everyone has an opinion about.
it's some of the funniest work he's ever produced - an arthouse treatise on the role of literature in the modern world that packs a broader comic punch than I could have previously imagined.
