Slant Magazine's Sal Cinquemani viewed the album as formulaic and ``competently, often frustratingly more of the same from an artist who still seems capable of much more.'' Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune perceived ``formula production and hack songwriting'', but complimented Pink's personality and its ``handful'' of worthy tracks. In his list for The Barnes & Noble Review, Robert Christgau named The Truth About Love the fourth best album of 2012.
