For Pitchfork,Marc Hogan wrote,"The Last Shadow Puppets' album blows up its creators' musical and lyrical vision to late-1960s cinematic proportions. The My Mistakes Were Made for You EP is more like your average set of special-edition DVD extras." Adding,"No new original material,no radical departures,just an unnecessary glimpse behind the curtain."
