The band's rise from obscurity to international stardom.

Wendy Ide

Times (UK)

Non-fans of the band will find nothing of cinematic interest in this by-the-numbers music documentary and existing fans will be unlikely to learn anything new of note.

Rated: 2/5

Guardian

It is a measured, intelligent film, though it primarily addresses the faithful.

Rated: 3/5

Little White Lies

This flimsy puff-piece from director Elizabeth Marcus is a boring document of a boring band.

Rated: 1/5

Radio Times

Financial pressure delayed completion of the film, rendering it several albums out of date on release, but it remains a valuable document for fans ...

Rated: 3/5
