Moviegoers are saying
ARE WE GOOD? captures Marc Maron's raw vulnerability as he navigates grief after losing partner Lynn Shelton, with audiences appreciating his authentic journey through loss while critiquing the documentary's uneven focus and scattered filmmaking approach. Viewers connect deeply with Maron's curmudgeonly humor and openness, though many wish the film explored Shelton's life beyond her relationship with him.

It’s a tricky balancing act that Feinartz depicts with candor, grace and patience, never letting the film’s provocative pathos turn overly grim or sentimental.

Are We Good? isn’t just an enthralling look at pain, loss, and how we handle unexpected grief; it’s also a reminder that life is always full of surprises — both good and bad — and that unexpected journey will certainly have you asking WTF? throughout.

By the end, Are We Good? transcends its conventional biographical trappings to land somewhere soulful. Dragging us through the wreckage of grief and out the other side, it suggests that Maron’s legacy isn’t merely acerbic stand-up or podcast milestones, but the more complex work of becoming human in public.
