At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from critics, I Might Be Wrong has an average score of 76 based on 16 reviews, indicating "generally favourable" reviews.[4]

Several critics felt the album was too short. Stephen Thompson of The A.V. Club wrote that it "cast new light" on Kid A and Amnesiac, but that it was "marred by characteristically unrevealing packaging and inexplicable brevity".[15] AllMusic's Sam Samuelson suggested it could instead have been packaged with Amnesiac as a "complete Kid A sessions package, rather than a couple of thrown-together releases".[5] Matt LeMay of Pitchfork criticised the lack of older Radiohead songs, and said it had the feeling of a "promotional item" for Kid A and Amnesiac.[3]

LeMay praised the performances of "Like Spinning Plates", which showcases Radiohead's "songwriting virtuosity rather than their sonic adventurousness", and "True Love Waits", which is "absolutely gorgeous ... it can hold its own against any song on OK Computer".[3] Entertainment.ie critic Andrew Lynch wrote: "Unlike most live albums, this one captures some of the excitement of actually being there and gives Radiohead back the human dimension they've recently been in danger of losing."[7] Rolling Stone described the album as "explosively raw", praising the "twisty, insular" performance of "Idioteque" and Yorke's "beautifully chilling voice" on "Like Spinning Plates".[16]
