The Boss and his crew were born to run, and the joyous Road Diary does a superb job of keeping up with them.

Craig Mathieson

The Age (Australia)

Bruce Springsteen’s director of choice, Thom Zimny, does a capable job on this tour documentary, which charts rock & roll’s abiding spirit returning to stadiums with his backing band after a six-year absence.

Angie Han

The Hollywood Reporter

Maybe Road Diary feels less up close and personal than the title would imply, or than some ravenous fans might hope. But in its joyous celebration of the band’s spirit, it nevertheless captures something of what makes them them.

Peter Rainer

Christian Science Monitor

Documentaries about performing artists are only as interesting as the artists being documented. In the case of “Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band,” one needn’t fret. The Boss is entirely captivating.

Rated: 4/5

Bill Newcott

The Saturday Evening Post

Besides singing his greatest hits, Bruce Springsteen also does a lot of talking in this high-power account of his ongoing concert tour...Occasionally he goes off script — or seems to — and that’s when we really get to learn a thing or two about The Boss.

Rated: 4/5

National Review

Sensible film-watchers shouldn’t tolerate ringmaster Springsteen, now that he and Zimny have turned his self-conscious Americana into self-mythologizing.

I enjoyed most of this, but Boss hagiography isn’t what I was hoping for.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
