Jeannette Catsoulis of The New York Times gave the film a negative review and wrote, "Insulting several nationalities and most of the filmgoing public, Tied to a Chair lurches through acting atrocities, continuity glitches and narrative gaps with grating insouciance." [2]
Diego Semerene of Slant Magazine awarded the film one and a half stars out of four and wrote that it "mostly suffers from a sense of confusion that never reads like bona fide experimentalism, just aimlessness." [4]
Opens on Friday in Manhattan.
