Mark Feeney Boston Globe If anything, the film does a bit too much, going for variety and breadth sometimes at the expense of depth. There are a lot of bases to touch here, and touching pretty much all of them means several get touched too lightly. Rated: 2.5/4 May 19, 2020 Full Review Adam Graham Detroit News "Up from the Streets" is clearly in love with its subject and wants everyone to feel that love as well. If only it had as much rhythm as the city that inspired it. Rated: B- May 18, 2020 Full Review Steve Davis Austin Chronicle The musical trope the movie returns to time and time again is the chaotic joy of a brass band strolling down a French Quarter street, attracting people of all stripes to come together and celebrate life, if only for a while. Rated: 3/5 May 14, 2020 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix Writer/director/producer Michael Murphy has crafted a definitive chronicle of New Orleans music in a film with an impressive range that's as entertaining as it is educational. Jul 18, 2020 Full Review Sean P. Means The Movie Cricket Engrossing as a documentary, if one can keep up with all the names and subgenres that are mentioned. But to get the full force, find the soundtrack album and listen to it on repeat. Rated: 3/4 May 26, 2020 Full Review Steven Prokopy Third Coast Review Up from the Streets is perhaps more emotionally driven than many music documentaries.
