Reception
Sabina Dana Plasse of Film Threat rated the film a 7.5 out of 10.
Neely Swanson of The Beverly Hills Courier gave the film a positive review and wrote, “I really liked this movie and not just because I knew the story and the protagonists; I liked it because it was fun, well-made, and hit the target.”
Prairie Miller of WBAI also gave the film a positive review and wrote, "When Bette Davis proclaimed that 'Old age is not for Sissies' she likely had in mind the acting world as well. And Our (Almost Completely True) Love Story is a marvelous tribute to that struggle, a defiant romance playing out simultaneously on and off screen between thespian veterans Mariette Hartley and Jerry Sroka, long term lovers with a passion for acting and each other, and in eventual wedlock."
