For fans, super fans or for the ones who are not either but just like rock'n'roll and want to watch what Springsteen represents to most of his die hard followers. True and emotional.

From the woman who confesses to listening in her car to Springsteen exclusively to the man who breaks down in tear whilst describing Bruce's lyrics this is an equally fascinating and worrying account of how far some of these Springsteen fans have taken their admiration of the man.

Non-Bruce fans or casual fans may want to check this film out, but it's really for true believers. If it never explains why they're true believers, the real truth is that it doesn't matter.

John DeFore

Hollywood Reporter

Springsteen and I gathers these homemade tributes into an effusive feature that will resonate with the kind of die-hard Boss fans who helped make it, but quickly grows tiresome for the less devout among us.

There are, however, a couple of bits that seem to get to the heart of Springsteen's singular place in the pop music world.

NME (New Musical Express)

Though the quality of many of the live clips is lacking - many are grainy or pixellated - the sheer power of the performance shines through.

Rated: 4.5/5

You pity the kids of the more Boss-obsessed but there's pomposity-pricking humour and uplift here, too.

As much as it's a love letter to Springsteen (who provided footage but reportedly had no editorial control over the content), it's also a love letter from fans to fans.
