Leigh Paatsch, writing in the Melbourne HeraldSun, felt that the films strongest point was the banter between the characters which was funny and engaging. But Paatsch said that Lawsons central performance was marred at times by an air of selfsatisfied smarm and the characters path to enlightenment was unfocused and unconvincing. He concluded with And I sense that others who similarly fell hard for the soulful sincerity of The Castle and The Dish will feel a little quizzical about the comparative slickness of Any Questions for Ben? ........
