Chicago Tribune - Gene Siskel
It's an old lesson, but one well told with fresh faces in Mask.

Los Angeles Times - Sheila Benson
Stoltz is simply amazing in the variety, the humor and the absolute lack of self-pity with which he draws Rocky, whose spirit soars so far beyond his body.

Time Out - Unnamed
Bogdanovich invests the story with warmth, generosity and considerable power.

Variety - Unnamed
Based on a true story, Mask is alive with the rhythms and textures of a unique life. Both in the background and foreground, Mask draws a vivid picture of life among a particular type of lower middle class Southern California whites. Much of the credit for keeping the film from tripping over must go to the cast, especially Stoltz, who, with only his eyes visible behind an elaborate makeup job, brings a lively, life-affirming personality to his role without a trace of self-pity.
