It is a good, strong documentary.

Many come to the shows unprepared for the heavy sermonizing. Others call for it. The documentary seems equally divisive.

CSNY Deja Vu has some delicious moments, but you never quite shake the feeling that it's documenting a tempest in a teapot.

Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
Rotten

The band's harmonies have crumbled and their new songs sound like paint being chipped off an aluminum shed with a garden rake. Their hits would sound better on the next eight-track you see at a yard sale.

Young, who directed the movie, compares today's climate with the Vietnam era, and doesn't bother hiding his disappointment in the present.
