	Author	Review
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"Moving and elegiac (...) The movie is full of great stories, backed by great photographs"	POS

United States	Steve Pond The Wrap	"It’s an affectionate and moving chronicle of a story well worth telling — and a story, surprisingly enough, that is not over yet."	POS

Canada	Andrew Parker The Gate	"[It] is more brutally honest and moving than all of this year’s other music docs put together."	POS
