Iggy Pop and Josh Homme collaborate on Iggy's final album, "Post Pop Depression."

John DeFore

The Hollywood Reporter

Rather than speak to the camera about working with his hero, Homme reads from a journal of the experience, leaching much of the impact out of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Time Out

A gentle, fan-friendly Iggy Pop doc.

Rated: 3/5

Jamie Healy

Radio Times

It all culminates in a triumphant gig at the Royal Albert Hall, with Iggy stripping off and surfing the crowd - still the godfather of punk despite pushing 70.

Rated: 4/5

Vague Visages

American Valhalla reflects the curious melding of two minds to create something entirely unique; an intriguing mixture of serious reflection and self awareness.

On one level this is a rock 'n' roll story that wants to be Arthouse, but overridingly it is a movie for fans of defiance, fans of music, fans of rock and let's face it, you can't love rock or defiance without loving Iggy Pop and Josh Homme, two truly great and very different auteurs with the bulk of their creations planted in alternate centuries. The key narrative thread is of a fascination and repulsion with mortality, and intriguingly this band of virtuosos have created something that should live for a long time because of their sense of their own finite nature. It's a great story, the tunes rock, Iggy has never been so well produced or supported. It's a giant f-- yeah.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
