We do at least get a sense of Manning as a person - though at this stage, she comes across as a person still trying to get a sense of herself.

Guardian
Rating: 2/5 --
XY Chelsea commits neither to being a portrait of Manning nor to investigating the aftermath of her political actions. Instead it floats dreamily between the two, never quite getting to the bottom of the many questions it raises.

One Room With A View
This frequently fascinating, frustrating study in naiveté, personal turmoil and self-discovery leaves the viewer stranded in process.

Los Angeles Times
XY Chelsea is not a treatise on WikiLeaks or Manning's actions. It's an intimate portrait of a very intelligent, complex person who did what she thought was the right thing, despite the consequences.

Decider
[There are] many twists and turns to [Chelsea] Manning's saga that this revealing documentary chronicles with an unwavering purpose: to show viewers who she really is and how she has adjusted to life outside of prison.

Culture Mix
Rating: 2/5 --
Given an unprecedented level of personal access, it's wildly frustrating that this documentary profile of the activist and whistleblower Chelsea Manning (the soldier who passed military documents to Wikileaks) should be so vague and impressionistic.

Rating: 3/5 --
XY Chelsea doesn't offer much breathing room as Manning reckons with all of this; it glosses over some of her experiences while letting others drag.
