Reception

Javier Ocaña of El País assessed that [Our Father, Our President] "may be an interesting film to watch and analyze, but it is by no means a good film", otherwise declaring it as displaying "an almost exasperating digital stiffness".

Jordi Battle Caminal of La Vanguardia rated the film 2 out of 5 stars, deeming it to be "of dubious usefulness", failing to offer the viewer anything that they did not already know about the Pujols, while displaying a tendency for hagiography.

Alfonso Rivera of Cineuropa wrote that the film "exudes a certain TV movie flavour".

Eulàlia Iglesias of Ara rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, assessing that it "does not quite find the right balance between the degree of respect for the figure of Pujol and the farcical actions of his children", also considering that the visuals are spoiled by a "rather poor aesthetic finishing with digital flavor", but welcomed the normality entailed by a film about Pujol being made in Catalan cinema.
