[[Roger Ebert]] of the ''[[Chicago Sun-Times]]'' gave the film three and a half stars out of four, and wrote, "Robin Williams plays Sy, another of his open-faced, smiling madmen, like the killer in ''[[Insomnia (2002 film)|Insomnia]]''. He does this so well you don't have the slightest difficulty accepting him in the role."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/one-hour-photo-2002|title=''One Hour Photo''|first=Roger|last=Ebert|author-link=Roger Ebert|newspaper=[[Chicago Sun-Times]]|publisher=[[Sun-Times Media Group]]|location=Chicago, Illinois|via=rogerebert.com|date=August 23, 2002|access-date=September 17, 2022|archive-date=September 20, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220920170601/https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/one-hour-photo-2002|url-status=live}}</ref>

[[Mick LaSalle]] of the ''[[San Francisco Chronicle]]'' noted that the film is "not nearly as intelligent, thoughtful or penetrating as it promises to be. Yet the consistent delicacy and emotional clarity of Williams' acting in ''One Hour Photo'' makes the picture impossible to dismiss."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sfgate.com/movies/article/Blurred-image-In-One-Hour-Photo-Robin-2807103.php|title=''One Hour Photo''|first=Mick|last=LaSalle|author-link=Mick LaSalle|newspaper=[[San Francisco Chronicle]]|publisher=[[Hearst Publishing]]|location=San Francisco, California|date=August 23, 2002|access-date=October 12, 2017|archive-date=October 12, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171012202003/http://www.sfgate.com/movies/article/Blurred-image-In-One-Hour-Photo-Robin-2807103.php|url-status=live}}</ref>
