Reception

The film has a 89% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on nine reviews.[3]

Dennis Harvey of Variety gave the film a positive review and wrote, "For all its tastefully exasperating gaps in character and storytelling specifics, To Live & Die and Live still has a persuasive overall vision..."[1] Patrice Witherspoon of Screen Rant awarded the film four out of five stars and wrote, "In its methodical approach towards addressing mental health, To Live and Die and Live defies and exceeds emotional expectations."[2] Todd McCarthy of Deadline Hollywood also gave the film a positive review and wrote, "Stylistically, To Live and Die and Live is cut down to the bone, with the essential action being conveyed but with a vital terseness that both frustrates and keeps you on your toes."[4]
