Critical reception of Collingwood: From The Inside Out has been generally positive, with praise highlighting the film’s intimate portrayal of AFL culture. On IMDb, the documentary holds a respectable rating around 7.1/10, with viewers commending its honest and detailed look inside the club and Adam Treloar's personal narrative. Critics from sports media have lauded the film for avoiding sensationalism, instead focusing on authentic experiences, with one review from AFL Nation calling it “a respectful and insightful look into the pressures athletes endure while maintaining the spirit of the game.” Rotten Tomatoes does not currently list a critic score, reflecting its niche documentary status; however, audience feedback there echoes similar sentiments of appreciation for its raw and candid storytelling. Some reviewers note that while the documentary is compelling for AFL fans, those less familiar with Australian rules football may find it less engaging due to the heavy focus on club-specific details. Metacritic does not have a dedicated score, but commentary from sports-focused publications highlights the film’s value in providing depth behind the public personas of players and the strategic intensity within the AFL. Overall, the documentary is viewed as a solid, heartfelt tribute that offers an enriching perspective for fans and newcomers alike.
