"I Will Follow" has been described by critics as a “proudly plain universal story about universal emotions”. Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times said, “This is a wonderful independent film. This is the kind of film black filmmakers are rarely able to get made these days, offering roles for actors who remind us of their gifts.” Film critic, Frank Scheck, of The Hollywood Reporter, said, "I Will Follow" is "a sensitively scripted drama about the grieving process that rings true, while avoiding the trap of succumbing to melodrama."
