Based on 8 critic reviews provided by

85	TheWrap Tricia Olszewski This documentary may indeed stir outrage and encourage victims to report such crimes. But it’s still a song we’ve heard before.
80	Los Angeles Times Robert Abele The movie offers hope in the form of a survivors’ network started by another maligned victim who attempted suicide.
80	Variety Dennis Harvey [A] powerful, well-crafted documentary.
80	The Hollywood Reporter Leslie Felperin Wrenching to watch, but told with clarity and guts.
75	The A.V. Club Noel Murray Audrie & Daisy could’ve done more to connect up the way the internet looms over both cases.... What the documentary does well, though, is critique a culture that allows young men to disregard other people’s humanity.
75	RogerEbert.com Sheila O'Malley The entire documentary is unnerving. Focusing on four separate rape cases with eerie similarities, Audrie & Daisy is a stark portrait of a problem which is not in any way local, aberrant, or random. The problem is systemic.
70	The New York Times Ben Kenigsberg Audrie & Daisy is strongest when it investigates what it regards as shortcomings of justice, for reasons technical and implied.
33	The Film Stage Daniel Schindel Make no mistake: Pott and Coleman’s stories are unquestionably worth sharing. But presenting them in a routine march of interviews spiced up solely with occasional animated reenactments does not do those stories justice.
