      Amy Nicholson Boxoffice Magazine The flick's signature shots are doors closing on Klein's camera. Meat Loaf is busy, he's sick, he's tired, he's in a confidential discussion. The excuses flow forth. Rated: D+ Mar 15, 2008 Full Review Joe Neumaier New York Daily News It's not easy being Meat Loaf. Rated: 2.5/4 Mar 14, 2008 Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz New York Times In Search of Paradise portrays Meat Loaf as an obsessive, self-punishing performer, striving in vain to put on a live show that matches the visions in his head. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 12, 2008 Full Review Dave White Movies.com Rated: 4/5 Apr 4, 2011 Full Review Frank Lovece Film Journal International You can't help but love the Loaf, and that spills over into most anything he does. Jun 9, 2009 Full Review Jennifer Merin About.com At age 59, Meat Loaf launches a worldwide tour for his album, Bat Out Of Hell III, with new stagings of some of his iconic songs. This fabulous rock doc is a first time look at Meat's grueling artistic process. It's amazing. Rated: 4.5/5 May 27, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member A fine Documentary film with some sentimental moments... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member One of my heroes in his purest form. -http://dailycommentator.blogspot.com/ Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member For all the opening piano moments, I thought this was going to delve a bit more into the person of meat loaf, instead I felt like they really wanted to focus on this tour, that no one really cares about... A bit of a disappointment. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Excelente documental que te deja con un poco de ganas de saber mas sobre la vida de Meat Loaf, pero que te demuestra la entraga que tiene y el sacrificio para dar un show. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Meatloaf is one of my favorite musicians, so this offers a interesting insight into this artists life. As movie though it falls FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Short of my expectations. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member A little more depth would have been nice but Meat Loaf didn't really seem like he wanted the documentary crew around at all since he kept waving them away. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
