      Reception


      David Browne of Rolling Stone called the film one of "the seven best new music documentaries of the year." Dan Schoenbrun of Filmmaker wrote: "Gorman Bechard's Color Me Obsessed is the rare music documentary that lavishes admiration not only onto its subject, rowdy Minneapolis cult rock band The Replacements, but on the band's fans as well." Peter Gerstenzang of The Village Voice called the film "pretty original", writing: "With so many voices, Color Me becomes a rock version of Rashomon, and what the film lacks in music and live footage, it more than makes up for with obsessive detail and heated debate."
