Craig D. Lindsey of RogerEbert.com gave the film three out of four stars and wrote, "Murphy often sits with a cocked head to the side when he talks, remaining both sage and suave as he tells his life story, often looking like he's surprised most of it happened to him." Daniel Fienberg of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "[Y]ou're gonna wanna watch Being Eddie because when Eddie Murphy wants to be, he's a spectacular storyteller and, as everybody already knows, an expert mimic."
