Leslie Felperin Guardian [A] thoughtful if somewhat scattered documentary ... Rated: 3/5 Oct 20, 2017 Full Review Ed Potton Times (UK) ... Cuba's geriatric music troupe get a touching send-off in Lucy Walker's hagiographic but moving documentary. Rated: 4/5 Oct 20, 2017 Full Review Scott Tobias Uproxx Adios feels both disorganized and unnecessary, like an encore staged after the house lights have gone up and most of the audience has exited the building. Oct 18, 2017 Full Review Steven Prokopy Third Coast Review Less a sequel and more a deluxe edition of the first film Buena Vista Social Club: Adiós is a worthy companion to the original film and well worth seeking out. May 7, 2020 Full Review Richard James Havis South China Morning Post Fans of both Wenders' movie and of Cuban music ... will find it expands their knowledge and love of son, Cuba's unique sound. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 15, 2018 Full Review David Parkinson Radio Times Many will have wondered what happened to the veteran Cuban musicians profiled in Wim Wenders's 1998 cult classic, Buena Vista Social Club, and Lucy Walker provides some of the answers in this genial if fitful documentary sequel.
