Critical reception
Reviewer Shashiprasad S. M from Deccan Chronicle gave the film a rating of 3/5 and wrote "the entertaining surprises coupled with dialogues and the performances of the characters elevates face to face to another level. There are also good number of negatives in the narrative when it starts throwing away too much of information but the end is what matters to make it a good watch"[6] Vivek M V of Deccan Herald gave the film a rating of 3/5 and stated "The film also tries to fit in nods to current affairs like the growing debate on dubbing in Kannada and the growing competition between telephone networks. It aims a sly dig at film critics."[7] A The New Indian Express critic A Sharadhaa gave the film a rating of 2.5/5 and says" Technically, Face 2 Face has its own cinematic beauty, credit for which goes to cinematographer Vishwajith Rao,whose picturisation explains the story better."[8]
