Critic Reviews

  • "If the overall age of the group is a problem, Shine a Light has the resources to combat and overcome it, key among them being the amount of filmmaking craft and skill director Scorsese and his team bring to the proceedings." Los Angeles Times

    - Kenneth Turan

  • "...cannily sprinkles concert footage with archival clips charting the rock veterans' rise and the unflappable wit and resolve with which they managed it." USA Today

    - Elysa Gardner

  • "...takes full advantage of heavy camera coverage and top-notch sound to create an invigorating musical trip down memory lane, as well as to provoke gentle musings on the wages of aging and the passage of time." Variety
